What are Percentages?

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.


The area of rectangle B is 10% greater than the area of rectangle A.

Area B = 1.10 (Area A)

The area of rectangle C is 10% greater than the area of rectangle B.

Area C = 1.10 (Area B)

Area B = (Area C)/1.10

Now, the area of rectangle B can be written as,

Area B = Area B

1.10 (Area A) = (Area C)/1.10

1.21 (Area A) =  Area C

Hence, the area of rectangle C is 21% more than the area of the rectangle A.
