Find a percentage, a share or the change between two numbers.
Decimals may be rounded to eight places; rupee amounts to two.
Per cent means “out of 100”. So 15% is 15 out of every 100, or 0.15 as a decimal. To find 15% of 200, multiply 200 by 0.15. The answer is 30.
Percentage of a number = (percentage ÷ 100) × number
The three modes answer different questions. “% of a number” finds a portion. “What %?” compares a part with a whole. “% change” compares a new value with the starting value.
Subtract the starting value from the new value, divide by the absolute starting value, then multiply by 100. From 80 to 100, the increase is 25%. A starting value of zero has no defined percentage change.
Yes. 150% of 200 is 300. Percentages above 100 describe more than the original whole.
No. Starting with ₹100, a 20% discount gives ₹80. Increasing ₹80 by 20% gives ₹96. The second percentage uses a different starting amount.
