Answer: The percentage change is -86.68%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 1945 to 259? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 1945\)
• \(Y = 259\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({259-1945 \over 1945}\) = \({-1686 \over 1945}\) = \(-0.86683804627249\)
• \(X = 1945\)
• \(Y = 259\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({259-1945 \over 1945}\) = \({-1686 \over 1945}\) = \(-0.86683804627249\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.8668\) = \(-86.68 \over 100 \) = \(-86.68\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -86.68%.
