Percent Pop
Quick percentage questions with clean whole-number answers: percent of a number, increases, decreases and working backwards. A daily set is waiting.
How to play
- Each question is a percentage problem such as 25% of 120 or 80 decreased by 20%.

- A wrong pick is greyed out and counted as a mistake.
- Answer every question to finish. Your time and mistakes are shown at the end.
Tips and strategy
- 10% is one tenth. Find that first and build the others from it: 20% is double, 5% is half.
- 25% is a quarter and 50% is a half, so halve once or twice.
- For an increase of 20%, find 20% and add it. For a decrease, subtract it.
- When the question works backwards, divide the part by the percentage and multiply by 100.
