Students use it to get grades and see how they're doing. Business owners use it to figure out their markup and margin. Anyone who needs to do quick percentage math will find it faster than a regular calculator.• To add X% to Y, use the formula Y × (1 + X/100).• Take away X% from Y: Y × (1 − X/100)• X% of Y: (X/100) × Y • A is what % of B: (A ÷ B) × 100 For instance, 200 plus 15% = 200 × 1.15 = 230. For instance, 150 minus 20% = 150 × 0.8 = 120. For instance, 25 is 25 ÷ 200 × 100 = 12.5% of 200.
