Answer: The percentage change is -38.68%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 486 to 298? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 486\)
• \(Y = 298\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({298-486 \over 486}\) = \({-188 \over 486}\) = \(-0.38683127572016\)
• \(X = 486\)
• \(Y = 298\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({298-486 \over 486}\) = \({-188 \over 486}\) = \(-0.38683127572016\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.3868\) = \(-38.68 \over 100 \) = \(-38.68\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -38.68%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -38.68%.
