Answer:

-50%

Explanation:

To find the percent increase/decrease:

  1. Subtract the original value from the new value.
  2. Divide by the original value.
  3. Multiply the decimal by 100 to convert to a percent.

Follow these steps below.

52 - 100 = -48

-48/100 = -0.48 rounded is -0.5

-0.5*100 = -50%
