Answer: The percentage change is -86.74%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 1961 to 260? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 1961\)
• \(Y = 260\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({260-1961 \over 1961}\) = \({-1701 \over 1961}\) = \(-0.86741458439572\)
• \(X = 1961\)
• \(Y = 260\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({260-1961 \over 1961}\) = \({-1701 \over 1961}\) = \(-0.86741458439572\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.8674\) = \(-86.74 \over 100 \) = \(-86.74\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -86.74%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -86.74%.
