A gradient of G% is equivalent to
arctan(G/100) degrees.
But be aware:
On calculators, arctan will be labelled tan-1 and may require another key (eg shift) to be used. In Excel the function is atan().
Calculators may give the answer in radians rather than degrees (depending on the settings), and Excel will give the answer in radians. To convert from radians to degrees, multiply the answer by 180/pi.

What is 5 percent gradient?
you go up five feet for going along 100 feet horizontally, so angle = inv. tan (5/100) = 2.862 degrees
How do you convert .25 inch per foot into degrees or percent slope?
To convert .25 inch per foot into degrees or percent slope, you first need to determine the rise over the run. In this case, .25 inch per foot is equivalent to a rise of .25 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal distance (1 foot). To convert this into degrees, you can use the arctangent function: arctan(.25/12) ≈ 1.19 degrees. To convert this into percent slope, you can use the formula: percent slope = (rise / run) x 100. In this case, it would be (.25/12) x 100 ≈ 2.08% slope.
