Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate a percentage increase?

Percentage increase = ((New Value − Old Value) / Old Value) × 100. For example, a price rising from $80 to $100 is a 25% increase: (100 − 80) / 80 × 100 = 25%.

What is X% of Y?

Multiply: X/100 × Y. For example, 15% of 200 = 0.15 × 200 = 30. Use the "% of number" tab to calculate this instantly with any values.
