The probability of an event is given by the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes. Here the event is the alarm clock running out of power. There are 24 hours during which the power can go out. You are asleep during 8 of these. A "favorable" outcome in this case is the power going out while you are sleeping -- that is, during one of those 8 hours. This makes the probability that the power goes out while you are sleeping 8/24.

How do i calculate the percentage difference between two numbers????
lawyer [7]

When finding the percent difference between two numbers, there are two ways you can do this.

1. The first way is how to calculate the percentage INCREASE of two numbers:

-The formula is Increase / Original Number × 100 = % increase

Step 1: Find out the difference between the two numbers you're comparing. New number - Original number = Increase.

Step 2: Divide the increase by the original number and then multiply your answer by 100. (If your answer is a negative number, then it is a percent decrease, not a percent increase.)

2. The second way is how to calculate the percentage DECREASE of two numbers:

Step 1: Find out the difference between the two numbers you're comparing. Original number - New number = Decrease.

Step 2: Divide the decrease by the original number and then multiply your answer by 100. Decrease ÷ Original Number × 100 = % Decrease. (If your answer is a negative number, then is is a percent increase, not a percent decrease.)
