🧮 Percentage Decrease Formulas

Basic Formula

Percentage Decrease = [(Original - New) ÷ Original] × 100

Example: Original = 100, New = 75
[(100 - 75) ÷ 100] × 100 = 25% decrease

Reverse Calculation

Original Value = New Value ÷ (1 - Percentage Decrease/100)

Example: New = 75, Decrease = 25%
75 ÷ (1 - 25/100) = 100

Multiplier Method

New Value = Original × (1 - Percentage Decrease/100)

Example: Original = 100, Decrease = 25%
100 × (0.75) = 75
