1. Read the number of files sold for each month from the bar graph

March: 4040
April: 5050
May: 4040
June: 2020
July: 88

2. Calculate the percentage change from March to April

Change = 50−40=1050 - 40 = 10
Percentage change = 1040×100%=25%\frac{10}{40} \times 100\% = 25\%

3. Calculate the percentage change from April to May

Change = 50−40=1050 - 40 = 10
Percentage change = 1050×100%=20%\frac{10}{50} \times 100\% = 20\%

4. Calculate the percentage change from May to June

Change = 40−20=2040 - 20 = 20
Percentage change = 2040×100%=50%\frac{20}{40} \times 100\% = 50\%

5. Calculate the percentage change from June to July

Change = 20−8=1220 - 8 = 12
Percentage change = 1220×100%=60%\frac{12}{20} \times 100\% = 60\%

6. Compare the percentage changes to find the greatest

The percentage changes are 25%25\%, 20%20\%, 50%50\%, and 60%60\%.
The greatest percentage change is 60%60\%, which occurred from June to July.
