How to use Percentage Calculator

Find a percentage of an amount or compare a starting value with a new value using percentage change.

  1. Choose percentage of a value or percentage change.
  2. Enter the percentage and value, or the original and new amounts.
  3. Calculate and check whether the result represents an amount or a percentage.

Worked example

15% of 200 is 30. A change from 200 to 250 is a 25% increase; from 250 to 200 it is a 20% decrease.

Limits and things to check

Percentage change from zero is undefined and rejected. For negative starting values, this tool uses the absolute starting value as the denominator; interpret those results in context.

What is the difference between a percentage and a percentage point?

Moving from 10% to 15% is an increase of 5 percentage points, or a relative increase of 50%. The percentage-change mode calculates the relative change.
