The maths behind the click
You do not need to memorise them. But seeing the method makes every answer easier to trust.
Find a percentage
(15 ÷ 100) × 240 = 36 Convert the percentage to a decimal, then multiply it by the number.
Find the percent
(36 ÷ 240) × 100 = 15% Divide the part by the whole, then multiply the result by 100.
Measure a change
((240 − 200) ÷ 200) × 100 = 20% Use the original number as the baseline for an increase or decrease.
Why Percentage.click?
A bare number solves the question once. A clear formula helps you understand the relationship between the part, the whole and the percentage—so you can use the same thinking again.
Percentage.click is designed as a fast static site. Calculations happen on the page, the layout stays lightweight and every tool is organised around a specific question rather than a wall of inputs.

Short answers to the questions people most often ask before reaching for a calculator.
Divide the percentage by 100 and multiply the decimal by the number. For example, 15% of 240 is 0.15 × 240, which equals 36.
Divide the first number by the second, then multiply by 100. If 36 is the part and 240 is the whole, 36 ÷ 240 × 100 equals 15%.
Subtract the original value from the new value, divide that difference by the absolute original value, and multiply by 100. A positive answer is an increase; a negative answer is a decrease.
