How It Works
The Percentage Decrease Calculator uses a straightforward formula to determine the percentage drop between two values. Here's the magic behind it:
Formula: Percentage Decrease = [(Original Value - New Value) / Original Value] × 100
For example, if your original value is 100 and the new value is 80, the calculation would be:
[(100 - 80) / 100] × 100 = 20% decrease. Easy, right?
