PRE-ALGEBRA What is “percent of change”? How do you find the percent of increase or decrease? percent of change: percent of quantity increase or decrease from the original amount. To find the percent of increase or decrease, use a proportion or find the difference between the change and the original amount and divide by the original amount Rule: Example: Find the percent of decrease from 70 to 63. Method 1: Proportion #% Part (Known)7 x Whole (Unknown)70 100 = Proportion. 7 70 x 100 70 x = 7 100 Cross products are equal. 70 - 63 = 7 Find the amount of decrease = Divide both sides by 70.. 70x 70 700 70 x = 10 70 to 63 is a 10% decrease 1 1 10 1 Percent of Change (6-7)

PRE-ALGEBRA How do you find the percent of a number? Method 2: Divide the difference by 100 Find the difference (subtract) between the original amount the new amount. Then, divide by the original amount 70 - 63 70 0 1 _. Multiply by 100 or move the decimal 2 places to the right to change a decimal into a percent. = Fraction bars also indicate division, so divide 7 by 70. 7 70 0.1 70 to 63 is a 10% decrease 1 0. % Fill in skipped blank spaces with zeros. Percent of Change (6-7)

PRE-ALGEBRA Find the percent of increase from 8 to 9.6. amount of increase = 9.6 – 8 = 1.6 = 0.2 = 0. 2 0. = 20% The percent of increase from 8 to 9.6 is 20%. percent of increase = amount of increase original amount = 1.6 8 Percent of Change LESSON 6-7 Additional Examples

PRE-ALGEBRA In a given year, Hillsboro had a total of 7.5 in. of rain by March 1 and a total of 22.5 in. by July 1. Find the percent of increase from 7.5 to 22.5. amount of increase = 22.5 – 7.5 = 15 = 2. = 2 0 0.% = 200% The percent of increase from March 1 to July 1 was 200%. percent of increase = amount of increase original amount = 15 7.5 Percent of Change LESSON 6-7 Additional Examples
7
PRE-ALGEBRA Find the percent of decrease from 1,250 to 1,120. amount of decrease = 1,250 – 1,120 = 130 = 0.104 = 0 1 0 4 = 10.4% percent of decrease = amount of decrease original amount = 130 1,250 Percent of Change LESSON 6-7 Additional Examples
