This Percentage Calculator can help you calculate the percentages between two number values. Calculate percentages and unknowns using percent formulas. Solve the equations or add or subtract a percentage from a number.
How to calculate Percentage?
First Percentage Calculator: What is percentage (p%) of x?
Example: What is 3.63% of 463.26?
Step 1: Plug into formula
y = (463.26 * 0.0363) / 100
Step 2: Solve the multiplication in the numerator
y = (16.816338) / 100
Step 3: Solve the division to find y
y = 0.16816338
Second Percentage Calculator: x is what percent of y?
Example: 34 is what percent of 943.22?
Step 1: Plug into formula
p = (34 * 100) / 943.22
Step 2: Solve the multiplication in the numerator
p = 3400 / 943.22
Step 3: Solve the division to find p and add percent (%) at the end
p = 3.60%
Third Percentage Calculator: x is p% of what?
Example: 10 is 40% of what?
Step 1: Plug into formula
y = (10 / 0.40) * 100
Step 2: Solve the division
y = 0.25 * 100
Step 3: Solve the multiplication to find y
y = 25
Fourth Percentage Calculator: What is x increased/decreased by p%?
Example 1: What is 15 increased by 50%?
Step 1: Plug into formula
If x an increase of p%: p% = (p% / 100) * 100. If x a decrease of p%: p% = -(p% / 100) * 100.
y = 15 * ((100 + 50) / 100)
Step 2: Solve the addition in the numerator of the division
y = 15 * (150 / 100)
Step 3: Solve the division
y = 15 * 1.5
Step 4: Solve the multiplication to find y
y = 22.5
Example 2: What is 24.34 decreased by 26.7%?
Step 1: Plug into formula
If x an increase of p%: p% = (p% / 100) * 100. If x a decrease of p%: p% = -(p% / 100) * 100.
y = 24.34 * ((100 - 26.7) / 100)
Step 2: Solve the addition in the numerator of the division
y = 24.34 * (73.3 / 100)
Step 3: Solve the division
y = 24.34 * 0.733
Step 4: Solve the multiplication to find y
y = 17.84122
