Answer: The percentage change is -4.38%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 1987 to 1900? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 1987\)
• \(Y = 1900\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1900-1987 \over 1987}\) = \({-87 \over 1987}\) = \(-0.043784599899346\)
• \(X = 1987\)
• \(Y = 1900\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1900-1987 \over 1987}\) = \({-87 \over 1987}\) = \(-0.043784599899346\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.0438\) = \(-4.38 \over 100 \) = \(-4.38\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -4.38%.
