How to use the calculator:
Option 1 (Direct way): Use the Increased Value CALCULATOR ("Calculate new value after percentage increase"). Enter your previous bill $200 [Original] and the increase 10% [Increase]. The calculator will tell you the new bill amount instantly.
Option 2 (Step-by-step):
Step 1: Find out how much the bill increased in dollars. Use the Basic Percentage CALCULATOR ("What is X% of Y?"). Enter the percentage increase 10 [X] and the previous bill 200 [Y]. It will show you that the increase is 10% of 200.
Step 2: Add that amount to your previous bill.
The formula:
We want to find the new bill after a 10% hike on the $200 bill.
Amount of increase = 10% of $200
Amount of increase = (10 / 100) × $200 = 0.1 × $200 = $20
New bill = Previous bill + Increase = $200 + $20 = $220
