Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate a percentage of a number?▼
To find X% of Y, multiply Y by X and divide by 100. For example, 15% of 200 = (200 × 15) / 100 = 30.
How do I calculate percentage increase?▼
Percentage increase = ((New Value - Old Value) / Old Value) × 100. For example, if a price goes from $50 to $65, the increase is ((65-50)/50) × 100 = 30%.
How do I calculate percentage decrease?▼
Percentage decrease = ((Old Value - New Value) / Old Value) × 100. For example, if a price drops from $80 to $60, the decrease is ((80-60)/80) × 100 = 25%.
