A change from 20 to 25 represents a positive change (increase) of 25% Percent change = [(20 - 25) / 20] x 100 = 25 % (increase)Where: 20 is the old value and 25 is the new value. In this case we have a positive change (increase) of 25 percent because the new value is greater than the old value.
Hope this helps :)
