The eagles won 15 games last year, and 8 games this year. what was the percent change?

P = percent change

N = new value = 8

S = starting value = 15

P = 100*(N-S)/S

P = 100*(8-15)/15

P = 100*(-7)/15

P = -700/15

P = -46.67% approximately

So if they won 15 games last year, then 8 games this year, then the percent change is approximately -46.67%

The negative percent indicates "a drop" or "decrease" in value. So you could say "the number of games won dropped by roughly 46.67 percent"

answer: 48
