Question

. A number changes from 50 to -10. How much is the increase or decrease in the number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A change from 50 to 42 represents a negative change (decrease) of -16%

Use the formula found below on this webpage to find the percent change by replacing the given values:

Percent change = New - Old|Old| × 100%

Percent change = 42 - 50|50| × 100% =

-850 × 100 = -16% (decrease)

Where: 50 is the old value and 42 is the new value. In this case we have a negative change (decrease) of -16 percent because the new value is smaller than the old value.
