Enter the initial and final values into the calculator to determine the C Value, which represents the relative change between two values.
C Value Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the C Value.
C = (V<sub>1</sub> - V<sub>0</sub>) / V<sub>0</sub>
Variables:
- C is the C Value (dimensionless)
- V0 is the initial value
- V1 is the final value
To calculate the C Value, subtract the initial value from the final value and then divide by the initial value. The result is a dimensionless number that represents the relative change.
What is a C Value?
The C Value is a dimensionless number that represents the relative change between an initial and a final value. It is often used in finance, science, and engineering to compare the change in a variable over time or between different conditions. A positive C Value indicates an increase, while a negative C Value indicates a decrease.
How to Calculate C Value?
The following steps outline how to calculate the C Value.
- First, determine the initial value (V0).
- Next, determine the final value (V1).
- Use the formula C = (V1 – V0) / V0.
- Finally, calculate the C Value.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Initial Value (V0) = 50
Final Value (V1) = 75
