Last week, you finished level 2 of a video game in 32 minutes. Today, you finish level 2 in 28 minutes. What is your percent of change?

Asked by allysonleblanc2

Answer (3)

The difference between these is four, and you should try and find what percentage 4 is of 32. 1/4 of 32 is 8, and as 4 is half of eight, this will be 1/8. Then convert this into a percentage, which is 12.5%

( 32 32 − 28 ​ ) ∗ 100 = 12.5
The general formula is;
( or i g ina l or i g ina l − n e w ​ ) ∗ 100
