100% is a whole of something. So 100% decrease must mean either remove all - zero, or no increase - remain the same.
This is possible when you can have values of less than zero. If I have $100 of wealth, a 150% decrease in my wealth would mean I am now $50 in debt.
12.5% increase.---------------------------Percentage decrease = (old - new)/old × 100 %If the result is negative it is an increasepercentage decrease = (2400 - 2700)/2400 × 100 % = -12½ % decrease, ie a 12½% increase.
100 -27 / 100 So the answer is 73/100 . Hope you understood this thank you 😊
The numerical decrease is 120 - 84 = 36. The percentage decrease is thus 100 x (36/120) = 30%.
