FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate what X% of a number is?+

Enter the percentage and the total number. For example, 15% of 200 = 200 × 0.15 = 30. The calculator does this instantly as you type.

How do I calculate percentage increase?+

Formula: ((New Value - Old Value) / Old Value) × 100. For example, if sales went from $500 to $650: ((650-500)/500) × 100 = 30% increase. The calculator shows this automatically.

How do I split a budget by ratio?+

Enter your total budget and ratio (e.g., 60:40). The tool calculates the exact dollar amount for each part. A $10,000 budget split 60:40 gives $6,000 and $4,000.
