Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate a percentage of a number?

Multiply the number by the percentage and divide by 100. 18% of 2,500 = 2,500 × 18 ÷ 100 = 450.

How do I find percentage increase?

Subtract the old value from the new value, divide by the old value and multiply by 100.

What is the difference between percent change and percentage points?

If a rate goes from 10% to 12%, that is a 2 percentage point rise but a 20% relative change.

How do I work out a discount?

Use “Decrease Y by X%”: a 20% discount on 1,500 gives 1,200.
