Answer: The percentage change is -8.7%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 23 to 21? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 23\)
• \(Y = 21\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({21-23 \over 23}\) = \({-2 \over 23}\) = \(-0.08695652173913\)
• \(X = 23\)
• \(Y = 21\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({21-23 \over 23}\) = \({-2 \over 23}\) = \(-0.08695652173913\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.087\) = \(-8.7 \over 100 \) = \(-8.7\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -8.7%.
