Answer:

  -30%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage change in length is given by ...

  percent change = ((new length) -(original length))/(original length) × 100%

  = (51.29 -73.3)/73.3 × 100%

  = -22.01/73.3 × 100% = -0.30027 × 100%

  = -30%

The decrease in the length of the spring was 30%.
