Frequently Asked Questions
It's when you apply one percentage to another, like taking 20% of 15%. The result is a smaller percentage (3% in this case). Useful for compound discounts or layered taxes.
Convert both percentages to decimals (divide by 100), multiply them, then convert back to percentage (multiply by 100). For example, 20% of 15% = 0.20 × 0.15 × 100% = 3%.
The calculator also computes the final amount by multiplying the base by both percentages in decimal form. For example, 20% of 15% of $200 = $200 × 0.20 × 0.15 = $6.
