Solve any percentage question
Percentages appear everywhere — exam marks, salary increments, discounts, profit and loss. This calculator handles the three most common questions so you do not have to remember formulas:
- What is X% of Y? – for example, 15% of 2,000 = 300.
- X is what percent of Y? – for example, 450 out of 500 marks = 90%.
- Percentage increase or decrease – for example, a salary going from 50,000 to 60,000 is a 20% increase.
Everyday uses
Students use it to convert marks into percentages for admission forms, employees to check pay raises, shopkeepers to set profit margins and investors to see how much a price has gone up or down.
A common trap
A 50% drop followed by a 50% rise does not bring you back to the start. 100 falls to 50, and 50% of 50 is only 25, so you end at 75. Percentage changes always apply to the current number, not the original one.
