Answer: The percentage change is -4.91%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 285 to 271? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 285\)
• \(Y = 271\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({271-285 \over 285}\) = \({-14 \over 285}\) = \(-0.049122807017544\)
• \(X = 285\)
• \(Y = 271\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({271-285 \over 285}\) = \({-14 \over 285}\) = \(-0.049122807017544\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.0491\) = \(-4.91 \over 100 \) = \(-4.91\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -4.91%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -4.91%.
