Respuesta :

To answer the question above, subtract the price today, $9.65, from the price yesterday, $9.72. Divide the difference by the price yesterday and multiply by 100%. This is shown below,
                      ((9.72 - 9.65) / 9.72) x 100% = 0.72%
Thus, the price decreased by approximately 0.7%.
