What is the formula to convert a decimal to a percent?

Back

Multiply the decimal by 100 and add a percent sign. For example, 0.4 becomes 0.4 x 100 = 40%.

How do you calculate percent change?

Back

Percent change = ((New Value - Old Value) / Old Value) x 100. For example, if the old value is 32 and the new value is 45, the percent change is ((45 - 32) / 32) x 100 = 40.6%.
