KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Absolute change = 6.5

Relative change = 61.91%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of months Jacob took for his first step = 17

Number of months Clyde took for his first step = 10.5

We have to compare the number of months it took Clyde to take his first steps to the number of months it took Jacob using absolute and relative change.

Absolute change:

  • It is simple difference of the second quantity and first quantity.

Absolute change

= Number of months Jacob took for his first step - Number of months Clyde took for his first step

= 17 - 10.5\\=6.5

Relative change:

  • It is the percentage of absolute change to the first quantity.

Relative change =

\dfrac{\text{Absolute change}}{\text{ number of months it took Clyde to take his first steps}}\times 100\%\\\\=\dfrac{6.5}{10.5}\times 100\%\\\\=61.91\%
