A 100 % slope is 45°. A level surface has no ratio, so 1 : n shows a dash.

How to use it

  1. Type the value

    The number you have, like 5 for a 5° slope.

  2. Pick its unit

    Degrees, percent, per mille, ratio 1 : n or pitch in 12.

  3. Read or copy

    Every other unit follows. Tap copy beside the one you need.

Tips

  • Percent is not degrees

    A 100 % slope rises as much as it runs: that is 45°, not 90°.

  • Ramps

    A 1 : 12 ramp is 8.3 % or 4.8°.

  • Measure it

    Lay your phone on the surface with the bubble level to read its slope.
