Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate X percent of a number?
Multiply the value by X and divide by 100. Example: 15% of 200 = 200 × 15 ÷ 100 = 30.
How do I find what percent one number is of another?
Divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100. Example: 25 is 50% of 50 because 25 ÷ 50 × 100 = 50.
How is percent increase or decrease calculated?
Use (final − initial) ÷ initial × 100. A positive result is an increase; negative is a decrease.
