Answer: The percentage change is -75.11%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 1985 to 494? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 1985\)
• \(Y = 494\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({494-1985 \over 1985}\) = \({-1491 \over 1985}\) = \(-0.75113350125945\)
• \(X = 1985\)
• \(Y = 494\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({494-1985 \over 1985}\) = \({-1491 \over 1985}\) = \(-0.75113350125945\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.7511\) = \(-75.11 \over 100 \) = \(-75.11\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -75.11%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -75.11%.
