please give us one set of numbers so we can work an example for you.

What was the percentage increase in motor vehicle production in countries outside the United States from 1950 – 1997?
1950- 10,577
1997- 53,463

Look below at your previous post
I answered it there:-)

To calculate the percentage increase in motor vehicle production in countries outside the United States from 1950 to 1997, you can follow these steps:

1. Find the difference between the two values:
Difference = 53,463 - 10,577 = 42,886

2. Calculate the percentage increase by dividing the difference by the initial value (1950 value) and multiplying by 100:
Percentage Increase = (Difference / 10,577) * 100

Percentage Increase = (42,886 / 10,577) * 100

3. Use a calculator or perform the calculation manually:
Percentage Increase ≈ 405.29%

Therefore, the percentage increase in motor vehicle production in countries outside the United States from 1950 to 1997 is approximately 405.29%.
