= (25%/$70) x 100% = 35.71429

Calculating the whole value

Example;

$145 is 45% of what?

Solution;

You will divide $145 by 45%

= $145 / 45% = (145/45) x 100 = 322.2222

Calculating the percentage change

Find the percentage change from $70 to $80

Solution

You will first find the difference between 80 and 70 then divide it by 70. The result will then be multiplied by 100%

[(80 - 70) / 70] x 100% = 14.28571%
