Answer: The percentage change is -53.19%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 596 to 279? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 596\)
• \(Y = 279\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({279-596 \over 596}\) = \({-317 \over 596}\) = \(-0.53187919463087\)
• \(X = 596\)
• \(Y = 279\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({279-596 \over 596}\) = \({-317 \over 596}\) = \(-0.53187919463087\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.5319\) = \(-53.19 \over 100 \) = \(-53.19\%\)
