๐ Percentages Explained
๐ข What is a Percentage?
Basically, a percentage is this : in mathematics it is a value of number or ratio that represents a fraction of 100. ๐ฏ โ>

Representing a dimensionless relationship between two numbers is just one of the several ways that percent can do so. โ๏ธ
Ratios, fractions, and decimals are a few of them. โ
The percentage figures have the symbol "%" written after the number indicated. ๐
It can also be signified by the words "% or pct" after the number. ๐
Eg: 35 % is written as the decimal 0.35 & also the fraction 35/100. ๐ฏ
๐งฎ Calculations on Percent It is obtained by multiplying it with the ratio value by 100. โ๏ธ๐ฏ
Have you for e.g. 25 male students of 50 students in class make the value of ratio to be 0.5. ๐จโ๐๐ฉโ๐ซ
Now multiplying it with 100 that will become followings. โ๐ฏ
Since it is said that 25 male students are in the classroom, by multiplying it with 100, we see that the percentage is 50%. โ ๐
๐ Percentage Formula
The percentage formula, though written in different forms, can be boiled down to the basic algebraic equation involving three quantities: ๐๐ข
P ร V1 = V2 โ๏ธ๐งฎ
P is the percentage (%) ๐ฏ
V1 is the first value that the percentage will modify ๐ข
V2 is the result of the percentage operating on V1. ๐ก
The automatically converts the input percentage to a decimal to compute the solution. ๐ง ๐
However, if solving for the percentage, the returned value will be the percent, not a decimal. ๐๐ฏ
๐ Example:
P ร 30 = 1.5 โ
Thus,
P = 1.5 รท 30 = 0.05 ร 100 = 5% ๐งพโ
If manually solved, it requires that the percentage be formatted to its decimal form, so the result depends on multiplied by 100 to get the percent. ๐๐ฌ
๐ Percentage Difference
You can find the percentage difference by taking the absolute value of the difference between the two numbers, dividing that by the average of both numbers, and multiplying by 100 to get a percent answer or not in decimal format. ๐๐
Percentage Difference =
|V1 - V2| โ๐ข
(V1 + V2)/2 โโ
ร 100 โ๏ธ๐ฏ
๐งช Example:
|10 - 6| รท (10 + 6)/2 = 4 รท 8 = 0.5 = 50% โ

๐ Percentage Change Formula
Percentage increase and decrease are defined considering the difference obtained between two values and regarding that difference to the first value. ๐๐ข
In simple mathematics, the two values' absolute difference is divided by the initial value. โ๐งพ
That is, it will determine how the initial value changed. ๐โ๏ธ
๐ Increase Example:
500 will increase due to a 10% increase (0.1). ๐บ
500 ร (1 + 0.1) = 550 โ
๐
๐ Decrease Example:
500 will decrease by 10% ๐ป
500 ร (1 โ 0.1) = 450 โ
