Answer: The percentage change is -22.94%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 231 to 178? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 231\)
• \(Y = 178\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({178-231 \over 231}\) = \({-53 \over 231}\) = \(-0.22943722943723\)
• \(X = 231\)
• \(Y = 178\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({178-231 \over 231}\) = \({-53 \over 231}\) = \(-0.22943722943723\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.2294\) = \(-22.94 \over 100 \) = \(-22.94\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -22.94%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -22.94%.
