Examples
Discount math
Item costs $80, store offers 25% off → "25% of 80" = $20 saving, final price $60.
Test score
Scored 38 out of 50 → "38 is what % of 50" = 76%.
Salary change
Old salary 50k, new 57.5k → "% change from 50000 to 57500" = +15%.
Common use cases
- Tax, tip, and discount math at the checkout
- Test scores and grading conversions
- Sales growth, revenue change, and KPI deltas
- Quick stats for reports without firing up a spreadsheet
Troubleshooting
- % change shows a huge number when starting from a small base.
- Small denominators amplify percentage changes (e.g. 1 → 10 is +900%). Mathematically correct — interpret with care when base values are small.
