What is the percentage increase/decrease from 55.5 to 51?
Answer: The percentage change is -8.11%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 55.5 to 51? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 55.5\)
• \(Y = 51\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({51-55.5 \over 55.5}\) = \({-4.5 \over 55.5}\) = \(-0.081081081081081\)
• \(X = 55.5\)
• \(Y = 51\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({51-55.5 \over 55.5}\) = \({-4.5 \over 55.5}\) = \(-0.081081081081081\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.0811\) = \(-8.11 \over 100 \) = \(-8.11\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -8.11%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -8.11%.
