The easy method to to calculate percentages of any Value
Everyone knows that there are arithmetic operations that we need on a daily basis, and among these operations we find the process of calculating the percentage value of a certain number (total value) to determine, for example:
One percent is one hundredth. To indicate this, we use the % sign. So 5 percent is equal to 5%, 0.05, 5/100, or five hundredths. It's that simple! That's all very well, but most of the time we don't just use percentages. Sometimes, we want to represent the ratio between 2 numbers.
we want to calculate 94% of 20750.
94% means 94 for each 100. So the approach would be: if I have 94 from 100, I have X from 20750 :
94 |
100 |
X |
20750 |
100 ----> 94
20750 ----> X
X =94 x 20750 |
100 |
X = (94 x 20750) / 100
X = 19505
So, 94% of 20750 is 19505.
