How to Calculate Percentage Increase

To calculate the percentage increase from an **original value** to a **new value**, use the following formula:

Percentage Increase (%) = [(New Value – Old Value) / Old Value] × 100

Step 1: Identify the values

Old Value = 50

New Value = 80

Step 2: Apply the formula

Percentage Increase = [(80 – 50) / 50] × 100

Step 3: Solve

Percentage Increase = (30 / 50) × 100

Percentage Increase = 0.6 × 100

Percentage Increase = 60%

Note: If the new value is smaller than the old value, it would be a percentage decrease instead.
