If you want to know what percent A is of B, you simple divide A by B, then take that number and move the decimal place two spaces to the right. That's your percentage! To use the calculator, enter two numbers to calculate the percentage the first is of the second by clicking Calculate Percentage.

a percentage is a way of writing a fraction out of 100

so a good rule is 

Answer = percentage x quantity / 100

which converts to percentage to a fraction and multiplies by the quantity
