Frequently asked questions

What is the easiest way to think about percentages?

A percentage is simply a part out of 100. For example, 25% means 25 out of every 100.

Can I use this for percent increase and decrease?

Yes. Percentage tools are commonly used for price changes, grades, revenue growth, and many other before-and-after comparisons.

Why are percentages used so often?

Percentages make comparisons easier because they normalize values into the same out-of-100 format.
