What is the percentage increase/decrease from 270 to 228?
Answer: The percentage change is -15.56%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 270 to 228? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 270\)
• \(Y = 228\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({228-270 \over 270}\) = \({-42 \over 270}\) = \(-0.15555555555556\)
• \(X = 270\)
• \(Y = 228\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({228-270 \over 270}\) = \({-42 \over 270}\) = \(-0.15555555555556\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.1556\) = \(-15.56 \over 100 \) = \(-15.56\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -15.56%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -15.56%.
