How These Percentage Calculations Work

  • What is X% of Y? – Multiplies the base value by (X ÷ 100).
  • X is what % of Y? – Divides X by Y and multiplies by 100 to convert to a percentage.
  • Percentage increase / decrease: – Calculates ((new − original) ÷ original) × 100.
  • Discount calculator: – Works out the discount amount and subtracts it from the original price.

Always double-check important calculations, especially if you are making financial, tax, business, or contract decisions based on percentages.
