Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate X% of a number?

Multiply the number by X and divide by 100. For example, 20% of 150 = 150 × 20 ÷ 100 = 30.

How do I calculate percentage change?

Subtract the original value from the new value, divide by the original value, then multiply by 100. A positive result is an increase; negative is a decrease.

What is the difference between percentage and percentage points?

Percentage points measure the arithmetic difference between two percentages. If a rate rises from 10% to 15%, that is a 5 percentage-point increase, but a 50% increase in the rate itself.
