What is the percentage increase/decrease from 266 to 261?
Answer: The percentage change is -1.88%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 266 to 261? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 266\)
• \(Y = 261\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({261-266 \over 266}\) = \({-5 \over 266}\) = \(-0.018796992481203\)
• \(X = 266\)
• \(Y = 261\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({261-266 \over 266}\) = \({-5 \over 266}\) = \(-0.018796992481203\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.0188\) = \(-1.88 \over 100 \) = \(-1.88\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -1.88%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -1.88%.
