Answer: The percentage change is 151.57%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 15.9 to 40? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 15.9\)
• \(Y = 40\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({40-15.9 \over 15.9}\) = \({24.1 \over 15.9}\) = \(1.5157232704403\)
• \(X = 15.9\)
• \(Y = 40\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({40-15.9 \over 15.9}\) = \({24.1 \over 15.9}\) = \(1.5157232704403\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(1.5157\) = \(151.57 \over 100 \) = \(151.57\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is 151.57%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is 151.57%.
