Percent change = (new value - old value)/(old value) * 100

If the percent change is positive, it is an increase.
If the percent change is negative, it is a decrease.

percent change = (42 - 50)/(50) * 100 = -8/50 * 100 = -16%

It is a 16% decrease.

The answer would be percent decrease because if it started at 50 and turned to 40, it lowered since we know 50 is higher than 42 so it dropped by 8 since 8 divided by 50 0.16 and 0.16 times 100 EQUALS 16%
