Answer: The percentage change is -79.97%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 1997 to 400? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 1997\)
• \(Y = 400\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({400-1997 \over 1997}\) = \({-1597 \over 1997}\) = \(-0.79969954932399\)
• \(X = 1997\)
• \(Y = 400\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({400-1997 \over 1997}\) = \({-1597 \over 1997}\) = \(-0.79969954932399\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.7997\) = \(-79.97 \over 100 \) = \(-79.97\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -79.97%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -79.97%.
