Hi there!

nearest percentage=64%

1.Subtract starting value and final value:

[tex]1599-579=1020[/tex]

2.Divide it by the starting value:

[tex]1020*1599= 0.6378986866791744840525328330206378986[/tex]

3.Multiply the term by 100:

[tex]0.6378986866791744840525328330206378986[/tex]·[tex]100= 63.78986866791744840525328330206378986[/tex]

4.Round the term:

[tex]63.78986866791744840525328330206378986=64[/tex]

Therefore, the decrease of the total 8 years was 64%.
