SAT Percentages Practice Questions

SAT percentage questions ask you to compare a part to a whole or track a change from an original amount. These Digital SAT discounts, markups, and tax questions focus on identifying the percent base.

1. Identify the base: original price, final price, total group, subgroup, or other whole.
2. Use percent = part / whole or percent change = change / original, or use a multiplier for increases and decreases.
3. For percent change, compare the change to the original value, not the final value.
