The depth of the river is 3.192 feet.

How to illustrate the percentage?

A percentage is a value or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100. If we need to calculate a percentage of a number, we should divide it's entirety and then multiply it by 100.

The percentage therefore refers to a component per hundred. Per 100 is what the word percent means. It is represented by %.

Since last year the depth of the river was 4.2 feet deep and year it dropped 24%. The depth will be:

= 4.2 - (24% × 4.2)

= 4.2 - 1.008

= 3.192 feet
