How to calculate the Percentage Change?
To calculate the percentage change, subtract the first number from the second number and divide the result by the first number. Then simply multiply the obtained number by 100.
Percentage change = (n2 - n1) ÷ n1 × 100
Where:
- n1 - Number 1
- n2 - Number 2
Examples
Example 1: Calculate the percentage change between 140 and 175.
Percentage change = (175 - 140) ÷ 140 × 100
Percentage change = 35 ÷ 140 × 100
Percentage change = 0.25 × 100
Percentage change = 25%
Example 2: Calculate the percentage change between 50 and 20.
Percentage change = (20 - 50) ÷ 50 × 100
Percentage change = -30 ÷ 50 × 100
Percentage change = -0.6 × 100
Percentage change = -60%
