Answer: Number of students participated this year = 57


Step-by-step explanation: Number of student participated  last year = 60

                                          Decreased by 5%

                                          Decreased in number = 5% of 60 = 0.05x 60 =3

    Number of Students this year = Number of student last year - decreased

                                                        =               60    -   3

                                                        =  57
