Answer: The formula to calculate a percentage is:

Percentage = (part / whole) x 100

Where:

"part" is the quantity being expressed as a percentage of the "whole".

"whole" is the total quantity being considered.

For example, let's say you want to find the percentage of marks obtained by a student out of 100. If the student scores 80 marks, then the calculation would be:

Percentage = (80 / 100) x 100 = 80%
