Which statements correctly distinguish percentage points from relative percent change? Select all that apply.

  1. A rise from 20% to 26% is 6 percentage points.Respuesta correcta
  2. A rise from 20% to 26% is a 30% relative increase.Respuesta correcta
  3. A fall from 60% to 45% is 15 percentage points.Respuesta correcta
  4. A fall from 60% to 45% is a 15% relative decrease.

Explicación

A rise from 20% to 26% is 6 percentage points and 6 / 20 × 100 = 30% relatively; a fall from 60% to 45% is 15 percentage points. Calling the latter a 15% relative fall uses the point difference without dividing by the old 60% rate.
