    61.9% decrease.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    He was initially drinking 126 ounces of sweet tea

    He went to drinking 48 ounces of the sweet tea

    The decrease in the intake is 126 ounces - 48 ounces = 78 ounces

    Percentage decrease = decrease/original number of ounces * 100

    Percentage decrease = 78/126 * 100 = 61.9% (rounded up to nearest tenth)
