Step-by-step explanation:

  absolute change = (new value) - (original value)

  = 2430 -1845 = 585 . . . . . positive = increase

2. The relative change is the ratio of the absolute change to the original value, expressed as a percent:

  relative change = (absolute change)/(original value) × 100%

  = 585/1845 × 100% ≈ 37.7% . . . . . positive = increase
