What is the percentage increase/decrease from 2012 to 42?
Answer: The percentage change is -97.91%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 2012 to 42? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 2012\)
• \(Y = 42\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({42-2012 \over 2012}\) = \({-1970 \over 2012}\) = \(-0.97912524850895\)
• \(X = 2012\)
• \(Y = 42\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({42-2012 \over 2012}\) = \({-1970 \over 2012}\) = \(-0.97912524850895\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.9791\) = \(-97.91 \over 100 \) = \(-97.91\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -97.91%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -97.91%.
