Percent of Goal Calculator
Quickly see what percentage of your goal you've achieved with any numbers.
How Percent of Goal Calculator Works
This calculator shows you exactly what percentage of any goal you've completed by comparing your current progress to your target. Whether you're tracking sales targets, fitness goals, savings milestones, or project completion, it gives you an instant snapshot of where you stand.
The math is straightforward: it divides your progress by your goal and multiplies by 100 to get your percentage. This helps you visualize your achievement and see how much more you need to reach 100%.
You can use this for anything measurable – from "I've saved $5,000 toward my $20,000 car fund" to "I've completed 15 out of 25 training modules." It's particularly useful for tracking multiple goals or reporting progress to others.
Percent of Goal Calculator Formula Breakdown
Formula
Percentage achieved = (Progress made ÷ Desired goal) × 100Variables Explained
- Progress madeThe current amount you've achieved or completed toward your goal. This could be dollars saved, tasks completed, points earned, or any measurable unit that matches your goal.
- Desired goalThe total target amount you're working toward. This should be in the same units as your progress (if progress is in dollars, goal should be in dollars).
Example Calculation
Given:
- Progress made: 10
- Desired goal: 100
Calculation:
Progress percentage: 10 ÷ 100 = 0.10
Convert to percentage: 0.10 × 100 = 10.0%Result:
10.0%Explanation
This example shows someone who has made 10 units of progress toward a goal of 100 units, achieving 10% completion. This could represent anything from completing 10 out of 100 tasks to saving $10 toward a $100 target.
Tips for Using Percent of Goal Calculator
- 💡Make sure your progress and goal use the same units of measurement – don't mix dollars with percentages or hours with tasks completed.
- 💡If you get a result over 100%, you've exceeded your original goal, which is great news but might mean it's time to set a new, more challenging target.
