🔍 Common Use Cases:

🛍️ Shopping Discounts

Calculate 20% off $150 item

20% of 150 = (20÷100)×150 = 30

Sale Price: $150 - $30 = $120

💰 Restaurant Tips

Calculate 15% tip on $85 bill

15% of 85 = (15÷100)×85 = 12.75

Total: $85 + $12.75 = $97.75

📊 Tax Calculations

Calculate 8% tax on $250 purchase

8% of 250 = (8÷100)×250 = 20

Total with tax: $250 + $20 = $270

🎯 Goal Progress

📊 PRACTICAL BUSINESS EXAMPLES

Real-world percentage calculations:

Sales Performance:

                                    Target: 100 units | Actual: 85 units

                                    Performance: (85 ÷ 100) × 100 = 85%

                                    Shortfall: 100 - 85 = 15 units (15%)

Revenue Growth:

                                    Last Year: $50,000 | This Year: $65,000

                                    Growth: ((65,000-50,000) ÷ 50,000) × 100

                                    = (15,000 ÷ 50,000) × 100 = 30%

Price Strategy:

                                    Cost: $80 | Desired Margin: 40%

                                    Selling Price: 80 ÷ (1 - 0.40)

                                    = 80 ÷ 0.60 = $133.33

Advanced Percentage Concepts:

🧮 COMPOUND PERCENTAGE CALCULATIONS

Multiple percentage changes in sequence:

Example: Price increase then decrease

                                    Original: $100

                                    First: Increase by 20% → $100 × 1.20 = $120

                                    Second: Decrease by 15% → $120 × 0.85 = $102

                                    Net Change: ((102-100) ÷ 100) × 100 = +2%

                                    Not simply 20% - 15% = 5%!

Formula for compound percentages:

                                    Final = Original × (1 ± p₁/100) × (1 ± p₂/100) × ...

                                    Where p₁, p₂ are percentage changes

🔙 REVERSE PERCENTAGE CALCULATIONS

Find original value from percentage:

Example: Sale price is 30% off original

                                    Sale Price: $70 (after 30% discount)

                                    Original = Sale Price ÷ (1 - Discount%)

                                    = $70 ÷ (1 - 0.30) = $70 ÷ 0.70 = $100

Example: Price with tax included

                                    Total with 8% tax: $108

                                    Original = Total ÷ (1 + Tax%)

                                    = $108 ÷ 1.08 = $100

⚡ QUICK REFERENCE

Common Percentage Formulas:

Percentage of:

1. 15% of 250 = 37.5
2. 45 ÷ 180 × 100 = 25%
3. ((100-80)÷80)×100 = 25% increase
4. 150×0.80×1.15 = 138
5. 63 ÷ 0.70 = $90 original

Common questions and solutions

❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What's the difference between percentage points and percent?

A: Percentage points measure absolute difference (e.g., from 10% to 15% is 5 percentage points). Percent change measures relative difference (from 10% to 15% is 50% increase).

Q: How do I calculate percentage decrease?

A: Use the same formula as increase: ((Old-New) ÷ Old) × 100. A negative result indicates decrease. Our tool handles both automatically.

Q: What's the quickest way to calculate tips?

A: For 15% tip: Calculate 10% (move decimal), add half of that. Example: $80 bill → 10% = $8, half = $4, total tip = $8 + $4 = $12.
