What is the percentage increase/decrease from 40.2 to 56?
Answer: The percentage change is 39.3%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 40.2 to 56? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 40.2\)
• \(Y = 56\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({56-40.2 \over 40.2}\) = \({15.8 \over 40.2}\) = \(0.39303482587065\)
• \(X = 40.2\)
• \(Y = 56\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({56-40.2 \over 40.2}\) = \({15.8 \over 40.2}\) = \(0.39303482587065\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(0.393\) = \(39.3 \over 100 \) = \(39.3\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is 39.3%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is 39.3%.
