    By definition, the slope is the inclination of a line in relation to the horizontal. It can be expressed in degrees, ratios and even in percent. Therefore, you can calculate it by applying the following formula:

    P% = (H/L) x100

    P% is the slope expressed in percent.

    H is the height (H=1.2 meters).

    L is the length (L=4 meters).

    When you substitute these values into the formula P% = (H/L) x100, you obtain the slope of the skateboard ramp:

    P% = (H/L) x100

    P% = (1.2 meter/4 meters) x100

    P%=0.30x100

    P%=30%
