What is 102 percent of 118?

Answer: 120.36

Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.

Lets assume 102 percent of 118 is X.

Therefore, we can also say, X = 102% of 118

102% can also be written as 102/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.

So, X = 102/100 × 118

Or, X = 1.02 × 118

So, X = 120.36

So, 102% of 118 is 120.36

(You may also first multiply 102 with 118, and then divide by 100 to find the answer, if that's easier for you.)

Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.

Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100

LHS (Percentage) = 102

RHS = 120.36/118 × 100

Or, RHS = 1.02 × 100

So, RHS = 102

We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
