To solve this question, we need to analyse the graphic.

From this, we get that the students declined the most in Social Students.

From the graphic, we have that:

The Math grade increased from 79 to 88.
The Science grade increased from 79 to 89.
The English grade fell from 77 to 74.
The Social Studies grade fell from 85 to 80.

In which subject did students decline the most from 2000 to 2003?

They declined in two subjects: English and Social Studies. To find the one in which they declined the most, we divide the decline by the initial value, and multiply by 100, to find the percentage decline.

English: Decline of 3 from 77, so a decline of 3*100%/77 = 3.9%.
Social Studies: Decline of 5 from 85, so a decline of 5*100%/85 = 5.9%.

Thus, the biggest declined happened in Social Studies.
