Enter the percentage (%) and the rate into the Part Base Rate Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Part Base Rate. 

Part Base Rate Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Part Base Rate.

PBR = P / R
  • Where PBR is the Part Base Rate ( )
  • P is the percentage (%) 
  • R is the rate 

To calculate the part base rate, divide the percentage by the rate.

How to Calculate Part Base Rate?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Part Base Rate.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the percentage (%).
    • The percentage (%) is given as: 50.
  2. Next, determine the rate.
    • The rate is provided as: 2.
  3. Finally, calculate the Part Base Rate using the equation above: 

PBR = P / R

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

PBR = 50/2 = 25


Example Problem #2: 

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

percentage (%) = 60

rate = 3

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..

PBR = P / R = ?
