Answer: The percentage change is -26.9%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 71 to 51.9? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 71\)
• \(Y = 51.9\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({51.9-71 \over 71}\) = \({-19.1 \over 71}\) = \(-0.26901408450704\)
• \(X = 71\)
• \(Y = 51.9\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({51.9-71 \over 71}\) = \({-19.1 \over 71}\) = \(-0.26901408450704\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.269\) = \(-26.9 \over 100 \) = \(-26.9\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -26.9%.
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -26.9%.
