Percent of Increase and Decrease*When a beginning and ending amount are given

and you are asked to find the percent of increase or decrease from the beginning amount to the ending amount, you need to use the formula shown below:

Amount of increase or decrease (change) = %

original amount 100

So, we must first find the difference between the beginning and ending amount (amount of increase or decrease)

Then, you set up the proportion, cross multiply and solve for the %!
