Percentage From Ratio Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Percentage From Ratio. 

P = R  * 100
  • Where P is the Percentage From Ratio (%)
  • R is the any ratio (X:Y) 

To calculate the percentage from a ratio, multiply the ratio by 100.

How to Calculate Percentage From Ratio?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Percentage From Ratio.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the any ratio (X;Y).
    • The any ratio (X;Y) is given as: 4/5.
  2. Finally, calculate the Percentage From Ratio using the equation above: 

P = R  * 100

The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
