How do i work out what the % increase of 22223 to 34533 is?

Question

Thanks in advance it is an increase over a year and just cant rememeber back from my school years how to work it out.

Answer 1

Divide the big number into the little number. Multiply the answer by 100 and that's your percentage.

2223 ÷ 34533 = 0.06437

0.06437 x 100 = 6.4373 (%)

Answer 2

34,533 = 22,223 / X

Let X be the percent factor.

Solve for X

X = 22,223 / 34,500 = 0.644

0.644 in % = 0.644 x 100 = 64.4 %

Check: 34,500 x 64.4% = 34,500 x 0.644 = 22,218 or about 22,223

Difference is lost in the rounding of numbers.
