  28. To calculate the percentage increase: First:work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Increase = New Number - Original Number Then:divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. % increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100. If your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease. To calculate percentage decrease: First:work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Decrease = Original Number - New Number Then: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. % Decrease = Decrease ÷ Original Number × 100 If your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage increase.
