How do you find the percentage change?
966519
Percentage Change = (P1)/(P0)-1 \n\nWhere P1 = Price now (6)\nand P0 = Price before (4)\n\n(6/4)-1 = 1.50 = 0.50 = 50%\n\nAddendum:  No wonder you can't figure out the problem. Your book is wrong. Trust me... it's 50%.

multiply amount owed(pay off) by % and add. subtract that amount from the original amount. if I am understanding you correctly.

percentage would be 110/795 x 100. 13.836477987....%\n\nin general, percentage is the amount youre interested in divided by the total amount and then multiplied by 100.\nhope that helped. let me know if you need more help. laterz

Just move the decimal place two spaces to the left ;)\n\n325. % = 3.25\n\n0.056 % = 0.00056

50.7%\n\nLet me tell you how you do it, though. Just divide 38 by 75 and then multiply by 100. Take a few seconds and learn the math, ok?\n\nSomeone gave me a thumbs down. Guess they thought I was being mean. I was just trying to encourage you to learn how to figure percentages on your own. You won't always have Yahoo Answers there to help you. Good luck.

put 80 over 50 and set it equal to x/100\n\nx shoudl equal 160\n\ntherefore 160%

Percentages from fractions are fairly easy to calculate... do the division to get the decimal equivalent, then multiply by 100 to convert it to percentage:\n\n2/5 = 0.4\n\n0.4 * 100 = 40\n\n40% is your answer! :)

In 1970, it was 22,762,000\nIn 1995 it was 38, 139, 000\n\nThe increase was 38 139 000- 22 762 000 = = 15 377 000\n\nAs a fraction, the percent increase = actual increase/original then times 100 to convert to a percent.\n\nSo 15 377 000 / 22 762 000 X 100 = around 67.56 %

Take your calculator for any similar problem and divide, in this case, 60 by 75 and multiply by the decimal result by 100 and you will have a percentage. This works for all numbers. Take for example what is 19 of 20. Divide 19 by 20 and multiply time 100 and you will have 95%. This is how it is done.

take 35-3, which is 32.  then divide 32 by 35.  you'll get a decimal answer,  move the decimal to the right 2 spaces and that's your percent

Say you have 100 of something.  You want to raise it 20%.  You take 20% of 100 and add it to 100.  so a 20% increase of 100 is 120.\n\nIt is a little more difficult if you have a number like 19.  But then you just find out 20% of that by:\n\nX over 19 = 20 over 100\n\n19 x 20 = 380\n380 divided by 100 = 3.80\n3.80 + 19 = 22.80\n\n22.80 is 19 increased by 20%.

To convert a percent to a decimal all you do is move the decimal point two places to the left. For example:\n15%=.15\n(the decimal point was at the end of 15 and it was moved 2 places to the left)\n\n1.)27%=0.27\n2.)70%=0.70 \n3.)6%=0.06\n 4.)1%=0.01\n 5.) 18.5%=0.185\n 6.)2.2%=0.022\n 7.)15 1/2%=15.5%=0.155\n8.)30 1/4%=30.25%=0.3025

When you change a decimal to a percent you can do 2 things you can take the decimal point and move it 2 places to the right OR you can multiply it by 100\nTo change a percent to a decimal you do the opposite.  You can take decimal and move it 2 places to the left or divide the number by 100

You multiply [85/100] X 100 --> 85 %\n\nPercent and Percentage are the same in meaning but fall under different contexts. It's the way we apply it. Say for example; the PERCENTAGE of dog pet owners in a Region X is 78 %, and so on.

to convert from decimal to percentage, just multiply the decimal by 100, but remember to put the "%" sign so people know it is per 100

change in x = 10-(-4) = 14\nchange in y = 0-0=0\n\ntotal change = sqrt(14^2 + 0^2)\n= sqrt 196\n= 14
