Respuesta :

hi

here is  the  method :

you take  Value 1  and Value 2

And you do :   ( Value 2 - Value 1)  / (Value 1 )    * 100

Here we have :    Value 1 = 352 000

                            Value 2 =  337 920

So now we apply :

( 337 920 - 352 000 )  /  ( 352 000)   * 100 =  -4  

Population decreased by by  4 %

You can also make :  

352 000 * X = 337 920

                 X =  337 920 / 352 000

                 X = 0.96

if  the multiplier is  0.96 ,  it's mean that we lost  1 -0.96 = 0.04  

which mean  - 4%
