What does the Percentage Calculator do?
The Percentage Calculator handles three common percent problems in one place: finding a percent of a number (percent of), finding what percent one number is of another (what percent), and measuring the change between two values (percent change).
Common uses
- Percent of — work out discounts, tips, tax, or commissions, such as 15% of 80
- What percent — express one quantity relative to another, like what percent 25 is of 200
- Percent change — measure increases or decreases, such as a price rising from 40 to 50
- Ratios — convert between percentages and ratios quickly
Key features
- Percent of — calculates a given percentage of a number (part = percent × whole)
- What percent — finds the percentage that one number represents of another (percent = part / whole × 100)
- Percent change — computes the relative difference between an old and new value
How it works
The calculator applies the standard percent formulas:
- Percent of: part = percent ÷ 100 × whole
- What percent: percent = part ÷ whole × 100
- Percent change: change = (new − old) ÷ old × 100
A positive percent change indicates an increase; a negative value indicates a decrease. The tool returns the numeric result instantly, so no manual math is needed.
