To subtract a percentage (%) from a number, you can use this formula:
Step 1Replace the inicial value (50) and the percentage to subtract (40) in the formula: Inicial Value = 50, Percentage = 40 Final Value = 50 - (40/100 × 50) Step 2Divide the percentage (40) by 100 to get the percentage in decimal form. You can do this by just moving the decimal point 2 places to the left: Final Value = 50 - (0.4 × 50) Step 3Multiply the percentage in decimal form (0.4) by the inicial value (50): Final Value = 50 - 20 Step 4Subtract the result above (20) from the inicial value (50) to get the final value: Final Value = 30 (Answer).
Above, we have a grafical representation using strip diagrams (or percent bars) of 50 minus x percent, where x ranges from 0 to 100%, for your reference. |
