Answer:

Commercial cow-calf producers commonly use the term “percent calf crop,” but what does it mean? Does percent calf crop represent the number of calves born relative to the number of cows bred, or perhaps it is the number of calves born relative to the number of cows exposed to a bull? Some might calculate percent calf crop as the number of calves weaned compared to the number of calves born, or the number of cows bred, or the number of cows exposed. Each of these mathematical “interpretations” of percent calf crop could be justified as a reasonable definition of the term.

percentage change = (difference/original) * 100

percentage change = (5/24) * 100

percentage change = 20.8%

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck (:
