Calculate Percent – It is very important for us to know how to calculate the percent, because we always use it in everyday life. Hopefully this article on how to find percentages can provide a little knowledge to everyone about how to find percent and discounts. To facilitate understanding, we also accompany the questions and their understanding.

Percentage is the most important thing in the business world, especially trading and buying and selling. If we are in the world of trading either offline or buying and selling online, you must know how to calculate the percent so that it is easy to trade and not to be tricked by dishonest buyers. In this percent and discount material, you can also use tools such as a calculator to calculate the profit you will get from sales.

In this article, we will try to discuss how to calculate percent. To make it easy to understand, we will also complete it with questions and an explanation of each question. Hopefully this article can help everyone in understanding the percent calculation. Now, in calculating percent, we use the percent formula so it’s easy to get the result of the percent, but often this is difficult for some people to understand. So, we hope all visitors to understand it slowly.

Percent Calculation Formula

To calculate the percent, we use the formula as below:

Percentage (%) = (part / whole) x 100

Ok, to make it easier for you to understand, let’s just get into the problem.

What is the yield of 50% of 100?

The explanation: 50% means 50/100 X 100 = 50

Well, from the answer above we know that 50% of that 100 is 50.

Example of Calculating Percent

Example 1: calculating percent

You fill the volume of a glass with 400ml of water. Then, you add 40ml. So, the question is, what percentage is the increase in water in the glass?

Answers and discussion

Using the percent formula, we can know the percentage of increase in water in the glass after adding 40ml. How to enter into the formula!

(40 ml / 400 ml) x 100 = 10%

Example 2: How to calculate percent

Si Andi bought clothes at a price of 50,000, but it turned out that there was a 10% discount on these clothes. The question of this problem is how much money out of 10% of the 50,000?

We use the formula:

known: Percent value: 10
Fraction value: 50000

Percent value = [Percent Value] x [Fraction Value]: [100]

Based on the formula above, the result is: Percent value = 10 x 50,000 / 100 = 5000

Now the question is reversed, suppose Andi already knows the amount of money that is being given out or he already knows the fraction value of the percent, for example 5000. But he doesn’t know that 5000 is what percentage of 50,000. Then we can find it with the following formula.

Percent = [Value]: [Fraction Value] x [100]

Percent = 5000 / 50,000 x 100 = 10%

Example 3: How to find percent

Si Andi has a loan at the bank of 180,000,000 with monthly installments of 5,760,000 as much as 47 times. What is the percentage of the installments each month.

Answer:

Loan: 180,000,000
Installments: 5,760,000 / month x 47 times = 270,720,000
Percent = 180,000,000 / 270,720,000 X 100
Percent = 66.48%

Or in the following way

Loan 180,000,000 / 47 = 3,829,787
Installments of 5,760,000
% = 3,829,787 / 5,760,000 x 100
% = 66.48%

Apart from using a calculator, you can also use other tools to find percentages such as using a computer, namely using the Excel application.
