Understanding Percentages
The term "Percent" literally means "per hundred." When you calculate a percentage, you are determining how much of a total amount is represented by a specific ratio. To use this tool, enter the percentage rate (X) and the total base amount (Y). The tool divides X by 100 and multiplies it by Y to find your answer.
