Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate a percentage of a number?

Multiply the number by the percentage divided by 100. For example, 15% of 200 = (15 ÷ 100) × 200 = 30.

How do I calculate percentage increase?

Percentage increase = ((New Value − Old Value) ÷ Old Value) × 100. For example, from 80 to 100 = ((100 − 80) ÷ 80) × 100 = 25% increase.

What is the difference between percentage and percentage points?

Percentage points measure the arithmetic difference between two percentages. For example, going from 10% to 15% is a 5 percentage point increase, but a 50% percentage increase (5 ÷ 10 × 100).
