Calculating Percentage is very easy.

Simple Equation is, Percentage % = (Your amount / Total amount ) * 100
How that happened?Lets see,
In your example,
out of 2200 you paid 150
So,out of 1 you paid 150/2200
So,out of 100 you paid (150/2200)*100

Now lets see the percentage of what you have to pay more

you more have to pay=(2200-150)= 2050

out of 2200 you more will pay 2050
So,out of 1 you more will pay 2050/2200
So,out of 100 you more will pay (2050/2200)*100
percentage means per cent (per 100 ) as a cent is to dollar . So you divide the number by hundred . But here you have to find the number that out of hundred represents amount you have paid so 150/2200 0ultiplied by hundredHow do i calculate the percentage of a number?
