how to calculate percentage

 Percentages are a way to express a portion or share of a total as a fraction of 100. To calculate the percentage, you need to perform the following steps:

Determine the portion or share you want to find the percentage of. For example, let's say you want to find out what percentage of a total of 1000 is equal to 250.

Divide the portion by the total: 250 ÷ 1000 = 0.25

Multiply the result by 100 to convert the decimal to a percentage: 0.25 x 100 = 25

So in this example, 250 is 25% of 1000.

It's important to note that percentages can also be expressed as decimals or fractions. To convert a percentage to a decimal, simply divide the percentage by 100. For example, 25% ÷ 100 = 0.25. To convert a percentage to a fraction, divide the percentage by 100 and then simplify the fraction to its lowest form. For example, 25% = 25 ÷ 100 = 1 ÷ 4.
