Questions
What does this tool do?
The Percentage Calculator answers the three percentage questions people actually run into. "X% of Y" finds a part of a whole — handy for discounts, tips, and tax estimates. "X is what % of Y" turns two raw numbers into a share of the total. And "percent change from X to Y" measures growth or decline, returning a negative number when the value drops. Pick the mode, type two numbers, and the answer updates on every keystroke with no submit button.
How is "% of" calculated?
`X% of Y` returns `(X/100) × Y`. So 15% of 200 is 30. Useful for discounts and tax estimates.
How is "what %" calculated?
`X is what % of Y` returns `(X / Y) × 100`. So 50 is 25% of 200. Useful for converting raw numbers into share-of-total.
How is "% change" calculated?
`% change from X to Y` returns `((Y − X) / X) × 100`. A negative result means a decrease. Useful for growth, price changes, savings.
