Question

Answer:

$\%Change = 58.33\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Initial = 12$

$Final = 19$

Required

Determine the percentage change

Percentage change is calculated as thus:

$\%Change = \frac{|FInal - Initial|}{Initial} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{|19 - 12|}{12} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{|7|}{12} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{7}{12} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{7* 100\%}{12}$

$\%Change = \frac{700\%}{12}$

$\%Change = 58.33\%$
