Visualisation of 1%, 1‰, 1‱, 1 pcm and 1 ppm as fractions of the large block One part per hundred is generally represented by the percent sign (%) and denotes one part per 100 (10 2 ) parts , and a value of 10 −2 .
Visualisation of 1%, 1‰, 1‱, 1 pcm and 1 ppm as fractions of the large block . Percentage point difference of 1 part in 100; Percentage (%) 1 part in 100; Basis point (bp) difference of 1 part in 10,000; Permyriad (‱) 1 part in 10,000; Per cent mille (pcm) 1 part in 100,000
Visualisation of 1%, 1‰, 1‱, 1 pcm and 1 ppm as fractions of the large block . A per cent mille or pcm is one one-thousandth of a percent. [1] It can be thought of as a "milli-percent". It is commonly used in epidemiology, and in nuclear reactor engineering as a unit of reactivity.
In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, and sometimes abbreviated 3sr, is a shorthand used to remember the percentage of values that lie within an interval estimate in a normal distribution: approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean, respectively.
For example, a N2.0 gas is 99% (two nines) pure and 1% impurities by volume; a N6.0 gas is 99.9999% (six nines) pure, with 1 part per million (1 ppm or 1 vpm, volume per million) impurities. [7] Intermediate values indicate the digit following the last nine. For example, N4.6 estimates a purity level of 99.996% (four nines followed by a six). [7]
From June 2009 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Arthur C. Martinez joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a 52.2 percent return on your investment, compared to a 55.1 percent return from the S&P 500.
Finally, there's good news for homebuyers and for homeowners who want to refinance their mortgages: The 30-year fixed mortgage rate now averages 6.73%, dropping significantly from its 20-year peak ...
Although ppmv and grains per dscf have been used in the above examples, concentrations such as ppbv (i.e., parts per billion by volume), volume percent, grams per dscm and many others may also be used. 1 percent by volume = 10,000 ppmv (i.e., parts per million by volume).
