(final value minus original value) divided by the original value, then multiply by 100
Suppose you start with a number x and it increases to a number y.There are two ways to get to the answer. They are mathematically equivalent and which one you use is up to you.Method 1Step 1: Calculate the z = y - xStep 2: Convert to percentage: 100*z/xMethod 2:Step 1: Calculate increased percentage: 100*y/xStep 2: Calculate percentage increase: 100*y/x - 100
It may be called the percentage increase in value or the percentage appreciation. You should use the word "percentage" because otherwise it could refer to the absolute increase or proportional (relative) increase.

If a persons leg is in the wrong grave, they use proportions to calculate which percentage of the body is missing.

A multiplier which deals with financial matters 1/1-mpc
You use the multipliers.Suppose you have an A% increase followed by a B% increase, then the value V is increased toV*(1+A/100)*(1+B/100).Therefore, the multiplier is (1+A/100)*(1+B/100) = 1+A/100+B/100+AB/10000So the compound percentage increase is A + B + A*B/100.Note that for compounding a C% decrease, the multiplier is 1-C/100.
They use percentage change because of the nature of the unit being described. The elasticity of demand specifies how much percentage demanded changes in response to a 1% increase in price.

I assume you have two (or more) points in time and you want a measure of the percentage increase in incidents between them.Step 1: For the first period calculate the incidence ratewhich is the number of incidents per head of population (or average population if the population changed during the first period). If it is a rare event you may have to look at incidence per thousand or million but that is just playing with the decimal point.Step 2: Calculate the incidence rate for the second period.Step 3: Calculate the percentage change in the incidence rate - not incidents.That would be 100*(I2 - I1)/I1.An alternative would be to calulate the incidents as a percentage of the population for period 1. This is 100*Incidents/Population. Calculate the percentage of incidents for period 2 similarly. In both cases, if the population varies during the period (not between the periods), then use the average population. Then the increase in incidents is (p2 - p1) percentage points. It is critically important that the result is presented as an increases in percentage points and not simply a percentage increase.

The best way to show would be to use an example. In this answer, we will calculate the percentage increase from 4 to 10:Find the difference between two numbers (eg. 10-4 = 6)Divide that by the first number (eg. 6/4 = 1.5)Multiply the answer by 100, to turn it into a percentage (eg. 150%)
best way is to use a percentage multiplier.... go to 1010tires.com and determine your speedometer difference..... that will give you an idea of the mileage difference.
