% change is the % of increase or % of decrease. % change = (difference of the two values / the original value) x 100% =[(original value - new value)/original value] x 100% % increase -if the value increased % decrease -if the value decreased
If you start with a value x and end with a value y thenPercentage change = 100*(y/x - 1)If y > x then the above is positive and is a percentage increase andif y < x then the above is negative and is a percentage decrease.
The answer is 164% I.

By expressing it as a positive value, it allows for easier interpretation and comparison of changes over time, regardless of whether the change is an increase or decrease.
