  "content": "<h2>Calculating Percent Progress to Goal</h2>\n<p>Determining the percentage of progress towards a goal is a common metric used in project management, fitness tracking, fundraising, and personal development. It provides a clear indicator of how much progress has been made and how much more effort is needed to reach the goal.</p>\n<p>The formula to calculate the percent progress to a goal is expressed as:</p>\n<p>\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times \\dfrac{ \\text{Progress} }{ \\text{Goal} } \\)</p>\n<p>where:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Progress</b> represents the amount of progress made towards the goal.</li>\n<li><b>Goal</b> represents the total value of the goal set.</li>\n</ul><p>By dividing the progress made by the total goal and then multiplying by 100, you obtain the percentage of progress towards the goal.</p>\n\n<h2>Examples</h2><p>The following examples demonstrate how to calculate the percent progress to a goal using the given formula.</p><div class=\"example\"><h3 class=\"question\"><span class=\"example_n\">1.</span> You have set a goal to save $10,000 for a vacation, and you have currently saved $4,000. What percentage of your goal have you achieved?</h3><h4 class=\"answer\">Answer</h4><p>Given:</p><ul><li><b>Progress</b> = $4,000 (Amount saved)</li><li><b>Goal</b> = $10,000 (Total savings goal)</li></ul><p>The formula to calculate the percent progress to goal is:</p><p class=\"tabspace\">\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times \\dfrac{ \\text{Progress} }{ \\text{Goal} } \\)</p><p>Substituting the given values into the formula:</p><p class=\"tabspace\">\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times \\dfrac{4000}{10000} \\)</p><p>Simplifying further:</p><p class=\"tabspace\">\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times 0.4 = 40\\% \\)</p><p class=\"tabspace answer\">Therefore, you have achieved 40% of your savings goal.</p></div><div class=\"example\"><h3 class=\"question\"><span class=\"example_n\">2.</span> A fundraising campaign has a goal of raising $50,000, and so far, $35,000 has been raised.

What percentage of your reading goal have you completed?</h3><h4 class=\"answer\">Answer</h4><p>Given:</p><ul><li><b>Progress</b> = 5 books (Number of books read)</li><li><b>Goal</b> = 12 books (Total reading goal)</li></ul><p>The formula to calculate the percent progress to goal is:</p><p class=\"tabspace\">\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times \\dfrac{ \\text{Progress} }{ \\text{Goal} } \\)</p><p>Substituting the given values into the formula:</p><p class=\"tabspace\">\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times \\dfrac{5}{12} \\)</p><p>Simplifying further:</p><p class=\"tabspace\">\\( \\text{Percent Progress} = 100 \\times 0.4167 = 41.67\\% \\)</p><p class=\"tabspace answer\">Therefore, you have completed approximately 41.67% of your reading goal for the year.</p></div><div class=\"example\"><h3 class=\"question\"><span class=\"example_n\">4.</span> A marathon runner has a goal of running 500 kilometers in a month and has run 275 kilometers so far.
