The Percentage Increase Calculator finds the increase from one value to another in terms of a percentage.
Enter starting value and final value to find percentage increase.
You can use the percentage increase formula for any percent increase calculation:
Last year your favorite jeans cost $36 per pair. This year they cost $45 per pair. What is the percentage increase in the price of these jeans from last year to this year?
Percentage Increase = [ (Final Value â Starting Value) / |Starting Value| ] Ă 100
45 â 36 = 9
9 / 36 = 0.25
0.25 Ă 100 = 25%
So the price of your favorite jeans increased by 25% from last year to this year.
Use the Percentage Decrease Calculator to find the percent decrease from one value to another.
Use the Percent Difference Calculator when you are comparing two values and want to find the percentage difference between them.
The Percent Change Calculator finds the change between two numbers as a percentage. It is similar to finding percentage increase or percentage decrease but it doesnâtthe change as an increase or a decrease.

The concept of percent increase is basically the amount of increase from the original number to the final number in terms of 100 parts of the original. An increase of 5 percent would indicate that, if you split the original value into 100 parts, that value has increased by an additional 5 parts. So if the original value increased by 14 percent, the value would increase by 14 for every 100 units, 28 by every 200 units and so on. To make this even more clear, we will get into an example using the percent increase formula in the next section.
The percent increase formula is as follows:
Percent increase = [(new value - original value)/original value] * 100
An example using the formula is as follows. Suppose a $1,250 investment increased in value to $1,445 dollars in one year. What is the percent increase of the investment? To answer this, us the following steps:
Working out the problem by hand we get:
[(1,445 - 1,250)/1,250] * 100
(195/1,250) * 100
0.156 * 100
15.6
percent increase.The percentage growth calculator is a great tool to check simple problems. It can even be used to solve more complex problems that involve percent increase. You may also find the percentage calculator is also useful in this type of problem.
If you want to know how to calculate percent decrease, we follow a very similar process as percent increase. Notice the slight modification of the formula:
Percent decrease = [(original value - new value)/original value] * 100
Suppose we have the same investment value after one year of $1,445. A year later the value decreased to $1,300. The percent decrease would be calculated as follows:
[(1,445 - 1,300)/1,445] * 100
(145/1,445) * 100
0.10 * 100 = 10
percent decreaseAlthough we have just covered how to calculate percent increase and percent decrease, sometimes we just are interest in the change in percent, regardless if it is an increase or a decrease. If that is the case, you can use the percent change calculator or the percentage difference calculator. A situation in which this may be useful would be an opinion poll to see if the percent of people who favor a particular political candidate differs from 50 percent.
While the percentage increase calculator is important in mathematics, it is also useful in science, such as calculating percent increase in mass of an chemical element in a compound.

Percentage increase is useful when you want to analyse how a value has changed with time. Although percentage increase is very similar to absolute increase, the former is more useful when comparing multiple data sets. For example, a change from 1 to 51 and from 50 to 100 both have an absolute change of 50, but the percentage increase for the first is 5000%, while for the second it is 100%, so the first change grew a lot more. This is why percentage increase is the most common way of measuring growth.
If you want to increase a number by a certain percentage, follow these steps:
To add two percentages together follow these steps:
A 50% increase is where you increase your current value by an additional half. You can find this value by finding half of your current value and adding this onto the value. For example, if you wanted to find what a 50% increase to 80 was, youâd divide by 2 to get 40, and add the two values together to get 120. A 50% increase is different to a 100% increase, which is double the original value.

In mathematics, a percentage (from Latin per centum âby a hundredâ) is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, â%â, although the abbreviations âpct.â, âpctâ and sometimes âpcâ are also used. A percentage is a dimensionless number (pure number); it has no unit of measurement.
