The formula used to calculate 75 percent less than 418, 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 75 for P and 418 for OV in our formula, we get the answer to 75 percent less than 418, as solved here:
PL = 418 - ((75 ÷ 100) × 418)
PL = 418 - (0.75 × 418)
PL = 418 - 313.5
PL = 104.5
75% less than 418 = 104.5
