Answer: The percentage change is -68.51%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 505 to 159? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 505\)
• \(Y = 159\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({159-505 \over 505}\) = \({-346 \over 505}\) = \(-0.68514851485149\)
• \(X = 505\)
• \(Y = 159\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({159-505 \over 505}\) = \({-346 \over 505}\) = \(-0.68514851485149\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.6851\) = \(-68.51 \over 100 \) = \(-68.51\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -68.51%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -68.51%.
