5 Core Percentage Formulas

% of Number

(% × whole) / 100
Ex: 25% of 80 = 20

% Increase

((new - old) / old) × 100
Ex: $50 → $65 = +30%

% Decrease

((old - new) / old) × 100
Ex: $100 → $75 = -25%

Reverse %

(part / whole) × 100
Ex: 30 is what % of 150? = 20%

New Value After %

whole × (1 ± %/100)
Increase: 100 × 1.15 = 115 | Decrease: 100 × 0.85 = 85
