How do you find the percentage of change between 3 numbers?
A percentage change can only be found between TWO numbers. If you are given more than two, the question may be asking for either- the increase from the first number to the rest of the numbers- the increase between successive pairs of number (for example a to b, b to c)To find the difference between one number and the next, subtract the first number from the second, then divide by the first number and multiply by 100. This gives the percentage of increase. If the result is negative, the second number being lower, this is the percentage of decrease.*The percentage change does not work in reverse - the percentage is always expressed in terms of the original (first) value.Example:2 and 4 - the increase is 2, divided by 2, times 100, which is a 100% increase.4-2 = 2, 2/2 = 1, 1 x 100 = 1004 and 2 - the decrease is -2, divided by 4, times 100, which is a 50% decrease.2-4 = (-2), (-2)/4 = 0.50, 0.50 x 100 = 50

If the difference between two whole numbers is 5 and their product is 6800 what are the two numbers?
Two numbers with a difference of 5 have a product of 6800. x and (x + 5) are our numbers. Let's multiply them together. (x) (x+5) = x2 + 5x That is equal to the 6800 specified. x2 + 5x = 6800 >> x2 + 5x - 6800 = 0 (x + 85) (x - 80) = 0 x + 85 = 0, so x = -85 (this in not a correct answer - it has the wrong sign) x - 80 = 0, so x = 80 (a correct answer, and one of the two numbers we need) Since x = 80, x + 5 = 85 Our numbers are 80 and 85. Let's check. 80 times 85 = 6800. Our work checks.

How do you work out the percent difference between two numbers?
Call the numbers a & b, a being the larger. (a - b) x 100/a will give the difference as a percentage of a. EG: What is the percentage difference between 36 and 20? a = 36, b = 20; then (36 - 20) x 100/36 ie 1600/36 = 44.4recurring% To find the difference as a percentage of the lower number just swop a & b and ignore minuses. as above but a = 20 & b = 36: (20 - 36) x 100/20 = 16 x 100/20 = 1600/20 = 80%
