D is the correct answer. This is both a Subject-Verb Agreement and a Pronoun problem. First, we know that it is a Subject-Verb problem because the verb changes from plural to singular in the answer choices (have decreased and have decreased). The subject of the sentence is number, which is singular, so we can eliminate A and B. The other major change is his or their, and since ,em>people is plural, we can discard his, and therefore answer choice C as well.
