How to Find the Percent of a Percent
The percentage of a percentage calculator will multiply one % by a second % to get the cumulative value. It will also take an original value and calculate a new value after the first percentage is applied and then a final value after the second percentage is applied.
For example, suppose the first percentage is 25
and the second is 33
. The calculator will compute (0.25)(0.33) = .0825
or 8.25%
. Now applying this to numbers, suppose the original number is 10
, take 10 * 0.25 = 2.5
, now multiply 2.5
by 0.33
to get 0.825
.
The user of the calculator can also enter the original value, value after first percent and final value and the percentages will be calculated.
