Quick guide

How percentage calculations work

A percentage expresses a quantity as a fraction of 100. For example, 25% means 25 out of every 100, which is the same as 0.25 in decimal form.

Example: To calculate 20% of 150, use 150 × 20 ÷ 100 = 30. To find what percentage 30 is of 150, use 30 ÷ 150 × 100 = 20%.

The calculators above accept decimal values and negative values where the underlying formula permits them. Very large or very small results are formatted for readability without changing the calculation itself.

FAQ

Percentage calculator questions

How do I calculate 15% of a number?

Multiply the number by 15 and divide by 100. For 15% of 200: 200 × 15 ÷ 100 = 30.

How do I work out what percentage one number is of another?

Divide the first number by the second and multiply by 100. If 45 out of 60 items are complete, 45 ÷ 60 × 100 = 75%.

What is the difference between percentage difference and percentage change?

Percentage difference compares two values symmetrically. Percentage change treats one value as the starting value and measures how far the new value has moved from it.

Can I use decimal numbers?

Yes. All four calculators accept decimal inputs. You can also paste numeric values directly into the fields.
