Percent to Grams Calculator
The percentage to grams calculator transforms % into their equal gram values, i.e 500ml solution and need a 15% salt concentration, you need 75 grams of salt (500 × 0.15 = 75g).

Percent to Grams Formula
Grams = (Total Volume in ml × Percentage) ÷ 100
To create a 40% sugar solution in 250ml water:
Calculation: (250 × 40) ÷ 100 = 100 grams of sugar needed
Bread Making
A traditional bread recipe calling for a 2% salt content in 1000g of flour:
Calculation: (1000g × 2%) ÷ 100 = 20g of salt
Coffee Brewing
For achieving the ideal coffee-to-water ratio of 6% in a 350ml brew:
Calculation: (350 × 6) ÷ 100 = 21g of ground coffee
Saline Solution
Creating medical-grade 0.9% saline solution for 500ml:
Calculation: (500 × 0.9) ÷ 100 = 4.5g of sodium chloride
Buffer Solution
Preparing a 5% buffer solution for 250ml laboratory sample:
Calculation: (250 × 5) ÷ 100 = 12.5g of buffer compound
How To Convert Percentage to Grams?
- Identify the total volume/mass of your solution i.e. 400ml alcohol
- Multiply the volume by the desired percentage (35%)
- Calculation: (400 × 35) ÷ 100 = 140 grams of alcohol required
Shampoo Formulation
Adding a 12% concentration of surfactant to a 750ml shampoo batch:
Calculation: (750 × 12) ÷ 100 = 90g of surfactant
Medicine Production
Creating a 2.5% active ingredient concentration in 100ml cough syrup:
Calculation: (100 × 2.5) ÷ 100 = 2.5g of active ingredient
Topical Cream
Formulating a 1% hydrocortisone cream in 50g base:
Calculation: (50 × 1) ÷ 100 = 0.5g of hydrocortisone
What is 1% in grams?
One percent equals 1 gram per 100ml of solution. This baseline measurement is crucial for laboratory work and precise formulations. For a 1% solution in 300ml:
Calculation: (300 × 1) ÷ 100 = 3 grams
How to convert 50% to grams?
A 50% solution means equal parts of solute and solvent. In a 200ml solution:
Calculation: (200 × 50) ÷ 100 = 100 grams This creates a 1:1 ratio between components.
How many grams is 30 percent?
For a 30% concentration in a 150ml solution:
Calculation: (150 × 30) ÷ 100 = 45 grams This creates a solution where 30% of the total mass is the solute.
