Examples of Calculating Percent Problems
1. Examples of Calculating Percent Problems
There is a glass containing 400 ml of water, then add another 40 ml of water. What is the total percent increase in water volume?
Discussion
- Then the percent increase in water volume is
- (40 ml / 400 ml) x 100 = 10%
A shirt costs Rp. 50,000 then the dress has a 10% discount, how to find 10% of 50,000, and what is the actual price of the shirt?
Method I
- Percent value = [Percent Value] x [100] x [Fraction Value]
- 10: 100 × 50,000 = 0.1 x 50,000 = 5,000
- Percent value = [Percent Value] x [Fraction Value]: [100]
- 10 × 50,000 / 100 = 5,000
- Then the price of clothes = 50,000 - 5000 = 45,000
- Percent = [Value]: [Fraction Value] x [100]
- 5,000: 50,000 × 100 = 10%
Angga has a loan at a bank of 120,000,000 in installments per month 4,730,000 per month for 47 times, what is the monthly installment percentage?
Answer

- % = 53.97
- Loan 120,000,000 / 47 = 2,553,191
- Installments of 4.730,000
- % = 2,553,191 / 4,730,000 x 100
- % = 53.97
How to Calculate Interest Percentage

How to Calculate the Interest Percentage of a Car or Motorcycle Loan Bank
Actually, the dealer does not issue vehicle loans to you, however, your vehicle payment is paid in full from the leasing bank to the dealer. Then the next payment is the same as lending money to the bank.
Dealers only complete matters of motor vehicle documents such as vehicle registration, BPKB, and number plate. In the future the dealer has responsibility for the warranty service during the contract agreement.
How is the down payment or what we usually know with a down payment? How do you calculate it?
For example like this, you choose the Duck motorcycle credit at one of the dealers in your city. The total price of the bicycle is considered IDR 14 million and you pay a down payment of IDR 4 Million.
So the remaining principal price that you must pay is Rp. 10 Million. Now the total credit paid by leasing to the dealer is IDR 10 Million (after deducting the DP).
So the picture is this:
You have Rp. 4 Million to cover the rest you lend to a Rp. 10 Million lease with a guarantee, BPKB. All costs are Rp. 15 Million then used to buy a duck motorbike to dealers at a price of Rp. 14 Million.
Example
- Price of motorbike = IDR 14 million
- DP = 4 Million
- Length of installment = 36 Months (3 years)
Answer
- Total interest (36 months) = Rp. 400,000 x 36 = Rp. 14,400,000
- Total interest (36 months) = Rp. 14,400,000 - Rp. 10,000,000 = Rp. 4,400,000
- Total interest (36 months) = Rp. 4,400,000 / 36 = Rp. 122,222, -
- Interest Percentage = Rp 122,222 / Rp 10,000,000 = 0.012 or 1.2% per month.
That's how to calculate bank interest as well as motor vehicle loan interest in leasing. The amount of interest along with the price of the motorbike in the example above is only an estimate, not the actual number. But the method used is according to the above, only the number is changed.
Formula for Calculating Discounts

- Discount price = initial price x discount percentage
- Discount price = IDR 400,000 x 10%
- Discount price = IDR 400,000 x 10/100
- Discount price = IDR 40,000
- Final price = initial price - discount price
- Final price = IDR 400,000 - IDR 40,000
- Final price = Rp. 360,000
Example of Calculating Discounts
The following are some examples of how to calculate discounts as your training material at home and how to solve them.
Problem Example 1
Angga wanted to buy one flower from paper for Rp 200,000 because when that time again coincided with the celebration of the new year. So, the interest gets a discount of 40%. What is the total cost that should be paid by Angga in order to buy the interest from the paper?
Settlement
Known :
- The initial price = Rp. 200,000
- Discount price = initial price x discount percentage
- Discount price = Rp. 200,000 x 40%
- Discount price = Rp. 200,000 x 40/100
- Discount price = Rp. 80,000
- Final price = ...?
- Final price = initial price - discount price
- Final price = Rp. 200,000 - Rp. 80,000
- Final price = Rp. 120,000
Problem Example 2
Ibu Rahma wanted to buy a new cupboard, after choosing the wardrobe she wanted, Mrs. Rahma then went to the cashier to pay for the cupboard. After being given a discounted price of 50% the price of the cupboard was Rp. 650,000. Calculate the initial price of the cabinet before giving a discount.
Settlement
Known :
- Final price = Rp. 650,000
- percentage discount = 50%
- The initial price = ...?
- Use Logic comparison:
- X% + Y% = Z%
- 50% + 50% = 100%
- IDR X + IDR 650,000 = IDR Z
- (IDR 650,000 x 50%): 50% = IDR 650,000
- Then the initial price is IDR 650,000 + IDR 650,000 = IDR 1,300,000
- Then the initial price of the refrigerator before the discount discount is Rp. 1,300,000
