percentage
Work out a percentage increase or decrease
Prior knowledge:
Understand :
Finding percentages of quantities – calculator and non calculator
Percent to decimal conversion (i.e. percent ÷ 100)
Use of percentage multipliers to find the percentage of a quantity
Percentages
Percentage increase
Find the percentage of the quantity and add it to the original
Example 1:
Increase 200 by 12%
cancel common factors
Example 2:
Increase 270 by 40%
cancel common factors
2
12 × 200 = 24
100
200 + 24 = 224
4 × 270 = 108
40
≡
100 10
270 + 108 = 378
Percentages
Percentage decrease
Find the percentage of the quantity and subtract it from the original
Example 1:
Decrease 200 by 12%
cancel common factors
Example 2:
Decrease 270 by 40%
cancel common factors
2
12 × 200 = 24
100
200 - 24 = 176
4 × 270 = 108
40
≡
100 10
270 - 108 = 162
Now do these:

Percentages
Percentage increase
When calculating a percentage increase of a quantity we are
starting with 100% and then we add the percentage asked for.
e.g.
Increase a quantity by 23%
100 % + 23 % = 123 %
100 % + 23 % = 123 %
In order to do this calculation we write the percent as a
fraction in hundredths. So this becomes:
100 + 23 = 123
Now 123 = 1.23 This is called the
percentage multiplier for
100 100 100
100
a percentage increase
Percentages
Example :
Increase 345 by 56%
100 % + 56 % = 156 %
156 = 1.56
100
the percentage multiplier is 1.56
345 × 1.56 = 538.2

Percentages
Increase 125 by 16%
125 × 1.16 = 145
Percentage multiplier is 1.16
340 × 1.09 = 370.6
Increase 340 by 9%
Percentage multiplier is 1.09
575 × 1.22 = 701.5
Increase 575 by 22%
Percentage multiplier is 1.22
Increase 84 by 1.3%
80 × 1.013 = 81.04
Percentage multiplier is 1.013
Increase £6.30 by 17.5%
6.30 × 1.175 = £7.40
Percentage multiplier is 1.175
Percentages
Percentage decrease
When calculating a percentage decrease of a quantity we are
starting with 100% and then we subtract the percentage asked for.
e.g.
decrease a quantity by 23%
100 % - 23 % = 77 %
100 % - 23 % = 77 %
In order to do this calculation we write the percent as a
fraction in hundredths. So this becomes:
100 - 23 = 77
Now 77 = 0.77 This is called the
percentage multiplier for
100 100 100
100
a percentage decrease
Percentages
Example :
Decrease 345 by 56%
100 % - 56 % = 44 %
44 = 0.44
100
the percentage multiplier is 0.44
345 × 0.44 = 151.8
Now do these:

Percentages
Decrease 137 by 13%
137 × 0.87 = 119.19
Percentage multiplier is 0.87
78 × 0.94 = 73.32
Decrease 78 by 6%
Percentage multiplier is 0.94
623 × 0.63 = 392.49
Decrease 623 by 37%
Percentage multiplier is 0.63
Decrease 467 by 1.3%
467 × 0.987 = 460.929
Percentage multiplier is 0.987
Decrease £7.45 by 17.5%
7.45 × 0.825 = £6.15
Percentage multiplier is 0.825
Percentages
To summarise percentage calculations
Original quantity × percentage multiplier = new quantity
By understanding how to rearrange equations you can find any
of the three if you know the other two.
