How it works

This calculator covers the three percentage problems people run into most often: finding what a percentage of a number is, finding how much a value has grown or shrunk in percentage terms, and applying a percentage change to a starting value. Switch modes above the calculator to move between them — your last answer stays visible until you change an input.

Formulas

  • percent ÷ 100 × of = result
  • (to − from) ÷ from × 100 = % change
  • base + (percent ÷ 100 × base) = new value

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate a percentage of a number?
Divide the percentage by 100 and multiply it by the number. For example, 18% of 750 is (18 ÷ 100) × 750 = 135.
How is percentage increase calculated?
Subtract the original value from the new value, divide by the original value, then multiply by 100. A move from 100 to 125 is a 25% increase.
Can this calculator handle percentage decreases?
Yes — enter the higher value as "From" and the lower value as "To" in the increase/decrease mode, and the result will show as a negative percentage.
