The percent change of 13.7 to 40.2 is 193.4%
To find percentage change, you need to find the difference between the two numbers. In this case, 26.5.
You then divide 26.5 by 13.7 and move the decimal point two spaces to the right.
Answer: The required percent change is 193.43%.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the percent change of 13.7 to 40.2.
We know that
the percent change from x to y is given by
[tex]P=\dfrac{y-x}{x}\times 100\%.[/tex]
In the given question, we have
x = 13.7 and y = 40.2.
Therefore, the percent change from 13.7 to 40.2 is given by
[tex]P=\dfrac{40.2-13.7}{13.7}\times100\%=\dfrac{26.5}{13.7}\times100\%=193.43\%.[/tex]
Thus, the required percent change is 193.43%.
