(12.7−9.3)÷9.3)*100=36.56%
((12.2−9.4)÷9.4)*100=29.79%
(8.2−5.0)÷5.0)*100=64%
(2.7−2.4)÷2.4)*100=12.5%
(3.9−3.3)÷3.3)*100=18.18%
(2.8−2.5)÷2.5)*100=12%

P: 11.2 / 12.7 = .86 - 1 = 13.2%
D: 10.8 / 12.2 = .88 - 1 = 11.4%
C: 8.0 / 8.2 = .97 - 1 = 2.4%
M: 2.7 / 6.2 = .43 - 1 = - 56.4%
E: 3.9 / 4.8 = .81 - 1 = - 18.7%
F: 2.7 / 2.8 = .96 - 1 = 3.5%
P through C plus F all start with lower numbers then go to higher while M and E start with the higher numbers that is why they are positive and not negative
