How to Convert Percent to Parts per million?

We can convert percent to parts per million by using an example.

Example:

Convert 20 Percent to Parts per million?

We know 1 Percent = 10000.0000000 parts per million; 1 Parts per million = 0.0001000 percent.

20 percent = ___ppm

20 × 10000.0000000 = 200000.00000 ppm (we know 1 percent = 10000.0000000 parts per million)

Answer:

20 percent = 200000.00000 parts per million

How to Convert Percent to Parts per million

  1. Take the percent value
  2. Multiply by 10,000

Technical Details

The percent-to-PPM conversion is the inverse of PPM-to-percent. Since "percent" means per hundred and "PPM" means per million, and 1,000,000 ÷ 100 = 10,000, you always multiply by 10,000. This is used in industrial chemistry to convert solution concentrations, in agriculture for fertilizer mixing ratios, and in food science for ingredient proportions. For example, a 0.1% chlorine solution for water disinfection equals 1,000 PPM.
