1. The problem is to verify the percentage decrease in suicide cases in the Philippines from 2023 to 2025.
2. The initial number of cases in 2023 is $3133$.
3. The number of cases in 2025 is $2000$.
4. The formula for percentage decrease is:
$$\text{Percentage Decrease} = \frac{\text{Initial} - \text{Final}}{\text{Initial}} \times 100$$
5. Substitute the values:
$$\frac{3133 - 2000}{3133} \times 100 = \frac{1133}{3133} \times 100$$
6. Calculate the fraction:
$$\frac{1133}{3133} \approx 0.3617$$
7. Multiply by 100 to get the percentage:
$$0.3617 \times 100 = 36.17\%$$
8. Rounded to one decimal place, the percentage decrease is $36.2\%$.
9. This matches the given decrease, confirming the data is correct.
