Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 87 to 40? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 87\)
• \(Y = 40\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({40-87 \over 87}\) = \({-47 \over 87}\) = \(-0.54022988505747\)
• \(X = 87\)
• \(Y = 40\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({40-87 \over 87}\) = \({-47 \over 87}\) = \(-0.54022988505747\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.5402\) = \(-54.02 \over 100 \) = \(-54.02\%\)
