Lets say there are two numbers
X and Y
To get X% of Y
we’ll have,
X * (Y/100)
=(X*Y)/100
let this be equation 1.
Now lets say for getting Y% of X,
we’ll do Y * (X/100)
= (Y*X)/100
this our equation 2.
You see, equation 1 and equation 2 are same.
just X and Y are swapped.
so when you say 5% of 10.
you do 5*(10/100)
but when you say 10% of 5.
you do 10*(5/100).
but both will give same answer
50/100
