When should I use Percentage Calc?
Percent Calc is for percentage maths. For unit conversion (cm to inches, etc.), use Unit Converter. For number-base work, use Binary ↔ Decimal.
Which percentage modes are supported?
X% of Y, X is what % of Y, X% increase / decrease from Y, and percent change between two numbers. Pick the mode; enter the two inputs; the answer is computed live.
Can it handle negative numbers?

How many decimal places does it show?
Four by default, rounded to avoid noise. Adjust the precision slider if you need more.
