Introduction

Percentages are everywhere — from exam scores to shopping discounts. Learning to calculate them quickly is a valuable everyday skill.

The Formula

Percentage = (Part / Total) × 100

This simple formula works for any percentage calculation. Just divide the part by the total and multiply by 100.

Examples

  • You scored 45 out of 60: (45/60) × 100 = 75%
  • A product costs NPR 800 after 20% discount: original price = 800 / 0.80 = NPR 1,000
  • Tax is NPR 5,000 on NPR 50,000 income: (5000/50000) × 100 = 10%

Conclusion

Percentage calculations become second nature with practice. For complex scenarios, use the formula above to calculate any percentage quickly.
