About the Percentage Calculator

How to Use

  1. Pick the calculation you need: a percentage of a number, what percentage one value is of another, or a percentage increase/decrease.
  2. Fill in the two values for that mode.
  3. Press Calculate to see the result instantly.

Formula

X% of Y = X × Y ÷ 100
X is what % of Y = X ÷ Y × 100
% change = (New − Old) ÷ Old × 100

Example

20% of 250 = 50. And 50 is 20% of 250. If a value rises from 200 to 250, that is a 25% increase.

Detailed Explanation

Percentages express a number as a fraction of 100, which makes it easy to compare quantities of different sizes. Percentage increase and decrease use the same underlying formula — the sign of the result tells you the direction — so this calculator combines both into a single "change" mode.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate a percentage increase?

Use the % Increase / Decrease tab, enter the old and new values, and the calculator will show the percentage change along with whether it is an increase or decrease.

Can I calculate what percentage one number is of another?

Yes, use the 'X is what % of Y' tab. For example, entering 50 and 250 tells you that 50 is 20% of 250.

Can the of-value be zero?

The of-value can be zero for the 'X% of Y' mode, but it cannot be zero when it is used as a divisor, such as in the 'is what percent' and '% change' modes.
