Understanding Percentage Change
The Percentage Change Calculator calculates the change from one value to another in terms of a percentage.
How to Calculate Percentage Change:
- Subtract the original value from the new value.
- Divide that amount by the absolute value of the original value.
- Multiply by 100 to get the percentage change.
- If the percentage is negative, it indicates a decrease rather than an increase.
Percentage Change Formula:
You can use the following formula for any percentage change calculation:
Percentage Change = ((New Value – Original Value) / |Original Value|) * 100
Example Problem: Percentage Change
For example, if the original value is 100 and the new value is 120:
Percentage Change = ((120 – 100) / 100) * 100 = 20%
So, there is a 20% increase from the original value to the new value.
