About Percentage Calculator
Calculate percentages, increases and decreases. Use it when you need the result without the overhead of opening a larger application. For anything important, compare the output with your source and keep the original until you are satisfied with the result.
Identify the percentage question before entering the numbers
“20% of 150,” “30 is what percent of 120,” and “100 increased to 125 by what percent?” use different formulas. The calculator is fastest when you choose the matching relationship first.
For percentage change, the original value is the denominator. Percentage points are also different from relative percentage change, especially when comparing rates.
A realistic example
A move from 4% to 5% is an increase of 1 percentage point, but the rate itself increased by 25% relative to 4%.
When this tool is not the right fit
Standard percentage change is undefined when the original value is zero.
What this tool does
