Step-by-step explanation:

you want to use the formula,

new value - original value

        original value               * 100

4 - 2

  2   * 100

2

_

2 * 100

now that we find the amount of change, we could do this in two ways. divide the fraction first then multiply that by 100 OR multiply the numerator by 100 first then divide that by the denominator.

first way :

2

_

2  * 100

1 * 100 = 100% increase

second way :
