Answer: The percentage change is -39.8%.
Let's see how we can calculate this percentage: what is the percentage increase/decrease from 98 to 59? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: We use the following formula:
\(\text{Percentage change}\) = \({Y-X \over X} \cdot 100\%\)
• \(X = 98\)
• \(Y = 59\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({59-98 \over 98}\) = \({-39 \over 98}\) = \(-0.39795918367347\)
• \(X = 98\)
• \(Y = 59\)
• Percentage change calculation = \({59-98 \over 98}\) = \({-39 \over 98}\) = \(-0.39795918367347\)
Step 2: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(-0.398\) = \(-39.8 \over 100 \) = \(-39.8\%\)
\(Answer: \) The percentage change is -39.8%.
