How to find percentages of a number
If you would like to be able to work out percentages for yourself, look at our two simple steps below!
Step 1) Find 1% of the number by dividing the number by 100.
Step 2) Multiply this answer by the percentage you want.
Examples of Percentages of a number
Example 1) Find 35% of 280
Step 1) Find 1% of 280.
1% of 280 = 280 ÷ 100 = 2.8
Step 2) Multiply the answer from Step 1) by the percentage
35% of 280 = 2.8 x 35 = 98.
Answer: 35% of 280 is 98.
Example 2) I put $4250 in a savings bank for a year at an interest rate is 3%. How much interest do I get?
Step 1) Find 1% of $4250.
1% of 4250 = 4250 ÷ 100 = 42.5
Step 2) Multiply the answer from Step 1) by the percentage
3% of 4250 = 42.5 x 3 = 127.5
Answer: I would get $127.50 interest.
Example 3) Frazer has a bottle with 30 ounces of water. He drinks 35% of the water. How much is left?
Step 1) Find 1% of 30 ounces
1% of 30 = 30 ÷ 100 = 0.3
Step 2) Multiply the answer from Step 1) by the percentage
35% of 30 = 0.3 x 35 = 10.5
Frazer has drunk 10.5 ounces of water, so there is 30 - 10.5 = 19.5 ounces left
Answer: There is 19.5 ounces left in the bottle.
