Answer: The percentage change is -74.29%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 7 to 1.8? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 7\)
• \(Y = 1.8\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1.8-7 \over 7}\) = \({-5.2 \over 7}\) = \(-0.74285714285714\)
• \(X = 7\)
• \(Y = 1.8\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({1.8-7 \over 7}\) = \({-5.2 \over 7}\) = \(-0.74285714285714\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.7429\) = \(-74.29 \over 100 \) = \(-74.29\%\)
