Percentage formula
\(B\) = base value
\(V\) = Percent value
\(P\) = Percentage
\(\displaystyle P=\frac{V·100}{B}\)
Example 1
\(\displaystyle P=\frac{V·100}{B} = \frac{20\cdot 100}{150}=13.33\%\)
Example 2
By how many percent must a base value of 850 increase to reach the percentage value of \(1000\).
\(\displaystyle P=\frac{V·100}{B}=\frac{1000·100}{850}=117.65\)
The percentage value of \(1000\) is \(117.65 \%\) of the base value \(850\). A surcharge of \(117.65 - 100 = 17.65\%\) is required to reach the value of \(1000\).
