if 50,000 tons of freight imports came from japan and 200,000 came from the USA. Can you show the difference between the two in a percent? it says the the 50,000 tons from Japan is 30% less than what was imported from the USA which is 200000. But i can't seem to calculate the 30% less.

(200,000 - 50,000) / 50,000 = ?

Multiply the decimal answer by 100 to get the percent.
