How to use it

  1. Pick the mode that matches your question: percentage of a number, reverse percentage, or change between two values.
  2. Fill the two inputs of that mode — the result appears immediately, together with the formula used.
  3. For percentage change, a negative result means a decrease.

About this tool

Covers the three questions people actually ask: what is X% of N, what percentage one number is of another, and how much a value increased or decreased in percent. Each mode shows the formula used so the result is verifiable, not just a black box.

Your input never leaves the browser: this tool works entirely offline once the page has loaded.

Frequently asked questions

Which of the three modes should I use?

Pick the one that matches your question: "X% of N" scales a quantity, "N is what % of M" compares two values, and "percentage change" measures growth or shrink between two values.

Why does the change mode reject a zero starting value?

Percentage change is relative to the starting point; dividing by zero is undefined, so the tool explains this instead of showing infinity.

Does a negative percentage mean a decrease?

Yes — the result labels the direction automatically, so −20% is displayed as a 20% decrease from the starting value.
