Percent of a Number Calculator
Find any percentage of any number instantly — 15% of a bill, 30% off a price, 7% of a total.
The mental shortcut
Percentages are reversible: 15% of 240 equals 240% of 15, and the second is often easier to do in your head. To find 15% of a restaurant bill, take 10% by moving the decimal point one place, halve it to get 5%, and add the two.
The formula
part = percentage ÷ 100 × whole
