Calculate “Y percent of X”, percentage change between two values and what percent one value is of another.
Results are for information and preliminary estimation. For critical technical work, manufacturer data, local codes and qualified professional review take precedence.
Percentage of a number = X × Y/100. Percentage change = (new − old) / old × 100. Ratio percentage = part / whole × 100.
15% of 800 is 120; an increase from 100 to 125 is 25%.
Everyday tools aim for fast, understandable answers while keeping units, assumptions and rounding visible.
No. Moving from 20% to 25% is 5 percentage points but a 25% relative increase.
It indicates that the new value is lower than the old value.
