how to calculate percent change between 2,018,000(oringinal number) to -1739000(new number)
Percent change is given by 100*(new number - original number)/original number
$${\frac{{\mathtt{100}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}\left({\mathtt{\,-\,}}{\mathtt{1\,739\,000}}{\mathtt{\,-\,}}{\mathtt{2\,018\,000}}\right)}{{\mathtt{2\,018\,000}}}} = -{\mathtt{186.174\: \!430\: \!128\: \!840\: \!436\: \!1}}$$
or ≈ -186% (the negative sign indicates a reduction)
