Difference between Percentile and Percentage 

Most of the time students get confused between percentage and percentile because both of them sound similar but they hold completely different meanings. Percentage is a ratio  of individual performance, whereas percentile is a rank of the student which is calculated for the comparison between the students. Let’s take one example for better understanding about the difference between them.

Example: 

If you got 80 marks out 100  and you got 5th rank in 20 students class then,

percentage = [(Marks you got / Total Marks) * 100]
                    = [(80 / 100) * 100]
                    = 80 %

Percentile = [(Number of Students having Less Marks than you / Total      Number of Students) * 100]

                   = [(15 / 20) * 100] = 75 percentile

How to calculate percentages in different situations? 

Fraction’s Percentage 

You can easily convert the percentage from a Fraction to calculate it. You need to divide the denominator by numerator and multiply it by 100.

For example, you need to convert 4/9 into a percentage,

                        ={(4 / 9) * 100}

Increase in percentage 

We can understand this with some simple examples. Let’s suppose you got 60 marks in any exam, and you are sad about it. Next time you worked, and you got 80 marks, then how much percentage increase do you have?

Percentage Increase = [{(New marks – Old marks) / Old marks} * 100]

                                     [{(80 – 60 ) /60 } * 100]

                                     30%

Decrease in percentage Let’s take the same example in a reverse way: if you got 80 marks in your first exams and, due to your overconfidence, you got 60 marks in your next exams, then how much decrease do you have ?

Percentage Increase = [{(New marks – Old marks) / Old marks} * 100]

                                  = [{(60- 80) /80 } * 100]

                                  =25%

SSC percentage 

SSC percentage calculation includes the same  method which is used for multiple subject percentage calculation. You just need to sum up total marks, divide them by the total number of marks in your exam, and multiply them by 100.

Average Percentage for Entire Class

The average percentage calculation is very simple. You can use the same technique and formula. First sum up the entire class marks, then divide them by the total marks of your exams, multiplying them with the number of students, and at last multiplying the whole answer with 100.

For example, there are four students in the class: 60, 70, 80, and 90.

Average Percentage = [(60 + 70 + 80 + 90) / 4].

How to calculate the percentage for the 12th standard?

To calculate your 12th standard  percentage, you need to follow the same formula which is used  for multiple subject percentage calculation. You can follow the following steps for that:

Step 1: Add all marks together which you scored in each subject.

Step 2: Calculate total marks by adding the maximum possible marks together.

Step3: Then Apply the formula and divide the total marks by total possible marks and multiply it with 100 to calculate the percentage.

For example :

Subject	Marks Obtained	Maximum Marks
Math	85	100
Science	78	100
English	92	100
History	88	100
Geography	75	100
Art	90	100

The sum of Obtained Marks: 85 + 78 + 92 + 88 + 75 + 90 = 508

Total Marks:

6 subjects × 100 marks each = 600

Percentage= (Obtained Score / Total Score) x 100

Percentage= 508 / 600 x 100

Percentage = 84.6

Tips to Calculate Percentage from Your Marks
