Calculate Difference: Calculate the difference between the initial and final values. $34 - 17 = 17$
Determine Percent of Change: Determine the percent of change using the formula: $(\text{Amount of change} / \text{Original amount}) \times 100\%$ . $\newline$ Percent of change = $(17 / 34) \times 100\%$ $\newline$ = $0.5 \times 100\%$ $\newline$ = $50\%$
Identify Change Type: Identify if the change is an increase or a decrease. $\newline$ Since the value decreased from $34$ to $17$ , it is a decrease.
