Question

Past year Shawna sold 220 bikes. This year 165. What was the percent of change?

Answer 1

we have that

220 bikes represent the 100% percentage

so

Applying proportion

Find out the percent of change by the difference (220- 165=55)

100/220=x/55

solve for x

x=(100/220)*55

x=25%

therefore

The answer is 25%
