Answer: The percentage change is -98.57%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 279 to 4? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 279\)
• \(Y = 4\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({4-279 \over 279}\) = \({-275 \over 279}\) = \(-0.98566308243728\)
• \(X = 279\)
• \(Y = 4\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({4-279 \over 279}\) = \({-275 \over 279}\) = \(-0.98566308243728\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
