seany123 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 okay so i have 2 values. awake and maxawake. awake can be anything from 0 - 10,000 (10,000 depends on the maxawake) maxawake can be anything from 100 - 10,000. so i wanna know how to work out what percentage awake is against maxawake. so say awake was 100 and max awake was 10,000. awakes would be 1% of 10,000. how can this be worked out in php???

Daniel0 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I don't mean to sound condescending or anything, but how did you work it out in hand then?

corbin Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 He meant "by hand." He wanted to know how you knew 1% of 10,000 is 100, but you didn't know how to figure stuff like that in PHP.

seany123 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 the answer is simple... i was tired and obviously wasnt think correctly. im fairly clever when it comes to maths, but its when trying to put maths and php together things get slightly harder.
