Percentage Tricks

Percentage Formula

To determine the percentage, we have to divide the value by the total value and then multiply the resultant to 100.

Percentage formula = (Value/Total value)×100

Example: 2/5 × 100 = 0.4 × 100 = 40 per cent

How To Calculate The Percentage Of A Number?

To calculate the percentage of a number, we need to use a different formula such as:

P% of Number = X

where X is the required percentage.

If we remove the % sign, then we need to express the above formulas as;

P/100 * Number = X

Example: Calculate 10% of 80.

Let 10% of 80 = X

10/100 * 80 = X

X = 8

Percentage Difference Formula

If we are given with two values and we need to find the percentage difference between the two values, then it can be done using the formula:

Some More Tricks To Solve Percentage Problems

Percentage is a fraction whose denominator is always 100. x percentage is represented by x%.

Calculation of Percentage

If we have to find y% of x, then

1. To express x% as a fraction:

We know

x% = x/100

Thus 10% = 10/100 (means 10 parts out of 100 parts)

= 1/10 (means 1 part out of 10 parts)

2. To express x/y as a percentage:

We know that x/y  = (x/y× 100 )

Thus 1/4 = ( 1/4 ×100 )% = 25%

and 0.8 = ( 8/10 ×100 )% = 80%

3. To increase a number by a given percentage (x%):

Multiply the number by the following factor

4. To decrease a number by a given percentage (x%):

Multiply the number by the following factor

5. To find the % increase of a number:

6. To find the % decrease of a number:
