Piped text from a question


Hello,
I would like to know how to do this the following in a Qualtrics survey,
Q1. Asks to enter a number (e.g., How much savings you have)
Q2. I want to show 3 answers in a multiple choice question where ,
Choice 1: 20% of the valued entered in Q1.
Choice 2: 30% of the valued entered in Q1.
Choice 3: 40% of the valued entered in Q1.

I used piped text from a question function the choices, but it does not allow me to show a percentage from the value of the responses I received.
I hope to find a way to achieve what I need as explained above.

Thank you

You're going to need to use math operations/equations:https://www.qualtrics.com/support/survey-platform/survey-module/editing-questions/piped-text/math-operations/
After Q1 the the survey flow, set up an embedded data category for each percentage. Use math operations to generate the calculations you need. Then in Q2, in the choices, pipe in those embedded data categories.

Sure! use math in your choice. https://www.qualtrics.com/support/survey-platform/survey-module/editing-questions/piped-text/math-operations/
you can have the choice use the math operation, pulling in the value from the question response and multiply by .2 for your first choice, by .3 for the next and, .4 for the last.
You can put the value of .2, .3 and .4 into embedded data variables in your survey flow (at the top) if you like so you can use the embedded data in the math formula (rather than raw values).
