Answer: The percentage change is -2.74%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 1789 to 1740? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 1789\)
• \(Y = 1740\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1740-1789 \over 1789}\) = \({-49 \over 1789}\) = \(-0.02738960313024\)
• \(X = 1789\)
• \(Y = 1740\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1740-1789 \over 1789}\) = \({-49 \over 1789}\) = \(-0.02738960313024\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.0274\) = \(-2.74 \over 100 \) = \(-2.74\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -2.74%.
