Get 10% of something? - Metharon - 02.02.2016

For example

new bankmoney = 50000;

How i get 10% of the bank money ?

Re: Get 10% of something? - FreAkeD - 02.02.2016

To work out a percentage you can simply do

(value/100)*10

That will give you 10% of something.

You will also have to make the variable value Float type or use the float round function.

Re: Get 10% of something? - AmigaBlizzard - 02.02.2016

Or just use

value / 10

Lol dude pls go back in you childhood and learn some maths. /10 is 10 times less. He asked 10%. So valule*10/100.

An example.

Код:

new Money = 10000;
GivePlayerMoney(playerid, -(money*10/100));
This will -1000 to player.

Well, look at this example:

PHP код:



printf("10 procent of 500 are: %i",(500/100)*10);

printf("10 procent of 500 are: %i",500/10);

Both are working.

Lol, I was one of the best in math at school. Only when they started using LaPlace Transform formulas I gave up, this was too hard for me, transforming an entire electronic schematic diagram into one formula and doing some frequency calculations on them.

Your suggestion gives the same result:
value * 10/100 = value * 1/10 = (value * 1) / 10 = value / 10 = value * 0.1

It's all the same.
You can even have "value * 1000 / 10000" and have the same result.

Your example also says exactly the same.

Money = 10000
At the end, it gives -1000 (also 10 times less and negative because of the minus sign).

LOL. Calling someone out on their math even though it is correct. Percent literally means "per hundred" (at least in French). Thus if you want 10% you want 10/100. Simplify to 1/10.

value x 1 / 10

If you know your order of operations you know that multiplication goes before division, so therefore it simply becomes

value / 10
