What is 0 percent less than 72? What is the formula used to calculate 0 percent less than 72? How can we calculate 0 percent less than 72?
Here we will show you the formula used to calculate 0 percent less than 72 (0% less than 72), and then we will calculate the answer to 0 percent less than 72 using our formula. We will also illustrate what 0 percent less than 72 looks like.
The formula used to calculate 0 percent less than 72, as well as other percent less than problems, can be seen below:
PL = OV - ((P ÷ 100) × OV)
PL (Percent Less) is the answer we want, P (%) is the percent, and OV (Original Value) is the starting value. Therefore, when we substitute 0 for P and 72 for OV in our formula, we get the answer to 0 percent less than 72, as solved here:
PL = 72 - ((0 ÷ 100) × 72)
PL = 72 - (0 × 72)
PL = 72 - 0
PL = 72
0% less than 72 = 72
So, how does our formula work to calculate 0 percent less than 72? First, it takes 0 percent of 72, and then we subtract that result from 72 to get our final answer. We have provided an illustration below so you can better visualize 0 percent less than 72.
In our illustration above, the areas shaded in blue and red add up to 72, and the area shaded in red is 0 percent of 72. In other words, blue is 72, red is 0, and blue plus red is 72.
