Percentage problems

One percent is one hundredth of a whole. To find p% of a number, multiply by p/100. To find the whole from a known percentage part, divide the part by p/100.

Percentage change

For an increase or decrease, first calculate the amount of change and then add or subtract it. Check whether the question asks for the change itself or the new final value.
