Step-by-step explanation:

1.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (21300 - 18500)/(18500) * 100%

percent change = 15.1%

A positive percent change is a percent increase.

The percent increase is 15.1%.

2.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (298000 - 325000)/(325000) * 100%

percent change = -8.3%

A negative percent change is a percent decrease.

The percent decrease is 8.3%.

3.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (110 - 125)/(125) * 100%

percent change = -12%

A negative percent change is a percent decrease.

The percent decrease is 12%.

4.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (1500 - 2000)/(2000) * 100%
