Percentage Calculations

You can perform the following percentage calculations:
Basic
: To calculate a certain percentage of a value
(A × B shift % = ).
: Percentage of a value against another value
(A÷B shift % =).
| Example | Operation | Display (Upper) | Display (Lower) |
| To calculate 25 % of 820 | 820 x 25 % | 205. | |
| The percentage of 750 against 1250 | 750 ÷ 1250 % | 60. |
Mark up : "A" value mark up by "B%" (A + A B × Shift % =)
Discount : "A" value have "B%" discount(A - A B x Shift % =)
| Example | Operation | Display (Upper) | Display (Lower) |
| 820 mark up 25% | .520,1 % | ||
| 820 have 25% discount | .516 %52 |
Percentage Increase :
If "A" is added to "B", the percentage increase
from "B" is:
$$ \times 100 \% \left[ \frac{A + B}{B} \right] $$
(A)(B + B ÷ Shift) =
Percentage Change :
If "A" is changed into "B", the percentage change
from "A" to "B" is:
$$ \times 100 \% \left[ \frac {B - A}{A} \right] $$
( { B A- } A= Shift % =
| Example | Operation | Display (Upper) | Display (Lower) |
| 300 is added to 750, the percentage increase of 750 is | |c|c|c|c 1 & 3 & 0 & 0 & + \ 7 & 5 & 0 & ) & ÷ \ 7 & 5 & 0 & Shift % \ = | (300+750) ÷75 | 140. |
| 25 increased into 30, the percentage change of 25 is | |c|c|c|c 1 & 3 & 0 & - & 2 \ 5 & ) & ÷ & 2 & 5 \ Shift % & = | (30 -25) +25% | 20. |
Percentage Proportion :
the ratio/ percentage of each individual portion in a calculation expression.
$$ \text { If } A + B + C = D $$
$$ \text {"A"} \text { is a\% of "D" where a = x 100\% } \quad \frac {\mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{D}} $$
Examples: To calculate the ratio of each portion as 25+85+90=200 (100%), the ratio of 25 is 12.5%, 85 is 42.5%, 90 is 45%
| Operation | Display(Upper) | Display(Lower) |
| 25+85+90 → A | 200. | |
| 25÷A % | 12.5 | |
| 85÷A % | 42.5 | |
| 90÷A % | 45. |

- Exponential Regression : y = ^Bx (Aey = InA + Bx)
• Power Regression : y = Ax^B(Iny = InA + BInx)
- Inverse Regression : y = A+Bx ^1
Quadratic Regression
• The quadratic regression is in relation to the formula:
$$ y = A + B x + C x ^ {2} $$
• Example: ABC company investigated the effectiveness of the advertisement expenses in coded units, the following data were obtained:
| Advertisement expenses: x | 18 | 35 | 40 | 21 | 19 |
| Effectiveness: y (%) | 38 | 54 | 59 | 40 | 38 |
Please calculate the correlation coefficient; use the regression to estimate the effectiveness (estimate the value of y) if the advertisement expenses x = 30, and estimate the advertisement expenses level (estimate the value of x_1 , x_2 ) for the effectiveness y=50
