Answer: The percentage change is -1.2%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 249 to 246? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 249\)
• \(Y = 246\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({246-249 \over 249}\) = \({-3 \over 249}\) = \(-0.012048192771084\)
• \(X = 249\)
• \(Y = 246\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({246-249 \over 249}\) = \({-3 \over 249}\) = \(-0.012048192771084\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.012\) = \(-1.2 \over 100 \) = \(-1.2\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -1.2%.
