Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 5956 to 1978? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 5956\)
• \(Y = 1978\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1978-5956 \over 5956}\) = \({-3978 \over 5956}\) = \(-0.66789791806582\)
• \(X = 5956\)
• \(Y = 1978\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1978-5956 \over 5956}\) = \({-3978 \over 5956}\) = \(-0.66789791806582\)
