For which of the following years the percentage increase/decrease in sales from the previous years was highest for State ‘F’?

Solution

We can observe from the table that F saw steep changes in 1999 and 2002.

But since the original value was low in 1999, it the one that has the highest percentage change.

Note that percentage change = $$\frac{New .value - Original . value}{original.value} * 100$$

The value for 1999 = $$ \frac{67-55}{55}*100$$ = 21.82%
