Question

What is the percentage difference between1982802.9 and 1786170.42

Answer 1

The percentage difference between two numbers is given by the formula below

`\begin{gathered} D=(|x_1-x_2|)/(((x_1+x_2)/(2)))*100 \\ x_1,x_2\rightarrow\text{ two involved numbers} \end{gathered}`

Thus, in our case,

`\begin{gathered} x_1=1982802.9,x_2=1786170.42 \\ \Rightarrow D=(|196632.48|)/(((3768973.32)/(2)))*100 \\ \Rightarrow D=10.4342... \end{gathered}`

Hence, the answer is 10.4342...%
