Now, find an example of two of the following misuses of percentages. •Use of a shifting reference value.

Percentage increases, decreases, or both do not have a cumulative effect. Be sure to demonstrate why your example fits this category. •Use of percentage to represent less than nothing. Look for an example where you are seeing a reduction of some percentage greater than 100. Be sure to demonstrate why your example fits this category. •Situation where the average percentage is reported. In general, you can not average percentages.
