Change in Percentage


Change is something which never dies and never changes. Change can be termed in the mathematical form as Variable, which has no constant value and it can take any value. It is usually denoted using some alphabet like the usual one ‘x’, the value of x is always unknown. There is a change in lot of things around us like every instant that is every second, and even that every second is a change in terms of time, distance and anything possible. The word possible is very challenging and there is nothing impossible in the world, impossible can be changed into possible through hard work and perseverance.

Coming to the concept of numbers, in which the topic concerned is about percentage  This concept when thought of, the general perception that every single has is that it is tough and not an easy concept to understand. The Percentage Change can always be an increase or a decrease in per-cent-age, it can be either way round. So it is necessary for us to learn both the method of calculations, actually both require the same Percentage Change Formula, the Calculating Percentage Change here will be only difference in the final answer, that too in the interpretation part, since obviously without understanding the number one can never say if it is an increase or a decrease in the change occurred.

Let us now try to answer the question of  How to Calculate Percentage Change. Answering this question is never a great task, it is all about the numbers we get for solving, and one can easily solve such type of questions, if one understands the problem and interprets the Percentage of Change. Let us consider an example to get a better understanding Calculate Percentage Change of the numbers whose initial value that is the original value is 50 and the final value is 100; the answer for this question is 50 – 100 / 50 * 100 = 100%, the answer shows us that there is an 100 % increase in the final value from the original value and that is the process of Calculating Percentage Change.

The fact is that anyone can solve such problems, but the interpretation part can only be done by the person who completely understood the concept. The final interpretation shows us the direction of change that is it shows whether the change is positive or negative and that makes the concept complete.
