Ben Stephens' sharing of this information was considered "surprising" and made the calculation easier than you might think.
This formula is not complicated at all.
The simple formula is x% of y = y% of x. "Simply put, if you want to calculate 4% of 75, just reverse it and calculate 75% of 4. That's obviously much simpler."
According to him, this calculation is as simple as calculating 18% of 50 being difficult, but 50% of 18 is easy; they all equal 9.
This recipe received over 21,000 likes and many positive comments.
They thought it was a brilliant calculation method that could help many people. Some even asked Ben Stephens to teach them. “I’m not a teacher or a mathematician. I just found it interesting and shared it on Twitter. Interestingly, this post became my most popular tweet ever,” he wrote.
