Introduction
The percentage calculator finds what percent of a number is, and shows the value after adding or subtracting that percentage — handy for discounts, markups, and quick mental-math checks.
Formula
A percentage of a value is the value multiplied by the percent and divided by 100.
- V — Base value
- p — Percentage
- Result — p percent of V
Step-by-step
- Enter the base value.
- Enter the percentage.
- Multiply value by percent and divide by 100.
- Optionally add or subtract the result from the base value.
Worked example
15% of 200 is 30. After subtracting: 170. After adding: 230.
