Percentage Increase Calculator
Percentage Increase. Example: Original quantity: 80, New quantity: 100 gives 25 %. Find the signed percentage increase relative to a positive original quantity. A negative answer means the quantity moved in the opposite direction. Original values below 1 and zero are outside this bounded tool; the original/new ratio defines the rate, not a supplied percentage adjustment.
How the calculation works
100 × ((new − original) / original)
Worked example
