Percentage is a measure used to express a part or proportion of a total number. It is represented by the symbol “%”.
It is useful for comparing quantities and understanding the relationship between them.
For example, if we say something has a 20% discount, it means its price has been reduced by one-fifth of the original price.
Or if we say that 70% of students passed an exam, it means that 7 out of 10 students were successful. Percentage helps us to understand and communicate proportions simply in different situations.
