Question: what was the percentual decrease observed in alcoa 2019s average realized price per metric ton of aluminum during 2014 and 2015?
Evidence:
table_2: the alcoa 2019s average realized price per metric ton of aluminum* of 2015 is $ 3514 ; the alcoa 2019s average realized price per metric ton of aluminum* of 2014 is $ 3743 ; the alcoa 2019s average realized price per metric ton of aluminum* of 2013 is $ 3730 ;
Program: divide(3743, 3514), subtract(#0, const_1), multiply(#1, const_100)
