To find percentages on this calculator, or any calculator, you divide one number by the other, and multiply the result by 100.
For example, for 2 out of 5, we type in 2, hit the divide button, type in 5 and hit the equals sign and we will get 0.4. To make this into percentage, we then multiply the answer by 100 to get 40%.
To get around this, you can calculate your numbers as percentages first. For example, if you type the formula =10/100 in cell A2, Excel will display the result as 0.1. If you then format that decimal as a percentage, the number will be displayed as 10%, as you 'd expect.Aug 2, 2011
Excel simply divides the values in column C by the total in C11. For the formula shown, the result is the decimal number .63. Because the Percentage number format is applied to cell E6, Excel displays .63 as 63%.
To calculate the percentage you divide 954 by 1000. This gives you 0.954 which you multiply by 100. To the result you get you append the symbol % Your percentage is 0.954*100%=95.4%
Here is a sample of the percentage calculations that the calculator can perform. You will not see among them the conversion from decimals to percentages. To convert from decimals to percents move the decimal mark 2 places to the right and append the % sign. To convert from percents to decimals, move the decimal mark 2 places to the left.
Sorry, but you cannot calculate percentages at the pressing of a key. The calculator does not have a key for that. You will have to do it yourself. To convert a decimal result to a percentage, multiply it by 100: MOVE the decimal mark two places to the right. To convert a percentage into a decimal number, divide the number by 100: MOVE the decimal mark two places to the left.
Hi. Try this steps on using your math calculator for the percentage function.
Hope This Helps
Step 1. Note that not all calculators behave the same way as far as the percentage key is concerned. Thus, test the examples in this article on your calculator. If your calculator does not have the percent key or does not behave in the way described here, don't despair - you can still use it to calculate percentages, it's just that you will have to press a few more buttons.
Step 2. Let's calculate a tip on your restaurant bill. Suppose your bill happens to be $64.35 and you would like to leave 15% tip.
Type the following into your calculator: 64.35 * 15 % Answer: 9.6525 or $9.65 after rounding.
Most simple calculators will give an answer right here without having to press the = sign. If yours does not, press = and see if you get the right answer.
Alternatively, you can calculate this percentage by typing in 64.35 * 15 / 100 or 64.35 * 0.15
Thus, you may have observed that all that the percent key did here was division by a hundred.
Step 3. Let's calculate a grade percentage - say you got 34 out of a maximum of 40 points.
To figure out your grade percentage type in: 34 / 40 % Answer: 85
Alternatively, without the percent key: 34 / 40 * 100
Step 4. Let's calculate a sale price on those shoes that originally cost $139, but are now discounted by 35%.
On your calculator type in: 139 - 35 % = Answer: 90.35 or $90.35
This calculation is amazingly easy with the percent key! Alternatively, you would first have to calculate what the 35% of the $139 is and then subtract it from 139: 139 * 35 / 100 = 48.65 139 - 48.65 = 90.35
they call it hardware malfunction. try removing all batteries in it and wait for 30 seconds before reinserting the batteries. If the same problem still exist, the unit is permanently damaged.
