FAQ
Percentage Formulas You Need to Know
| Problem Type | Formula | Example |
|---|---|---|
| X% of Y | (X ÷ 100) × Y | 20% of 500 = 100 |
| X is what % of Y? | (X ÷ Y) × 100 | 75 is 25% of 300 |
| % Increase | ((New − Old) ÷ Old) × 100 | 80 → 100 = 25% increase |
| % Decrease | ((Old − New) ÷ Old) × 100 | 100 → 80 = 20% decrease |
| Original from % increase | New ÷ (1 + Rate) | ₹1,200 after 20% rise → ₹1,000 |
| Original from % decrease | New ÷ (1 − Rate) | ₹850 after 15% off → ₹1,000 |
