Concept: The question tests on the ability to solve a Word Problem

Solution:

1990-Bicycles produced= 0.42x

1993-Bicycles produced=0.33x

Bicycles were sold in 1990 and 1993 = x

=>The decrease in bicycles produced and sold in Western Europe from 1990 to 1993 was:

0.42(x) - 0.33(x)

= 0.09x

 = 9 % of x
