Core Formula
X Engagement Rate=Likes + Replies + Reposts + Quotes + BookmarksImpressions×100\text{X Engagement Rate} = \frac{\text{Likes + Replies + Reposts + Quotes + Bookmarks}}{\text{Impressions}} \times 100

How it works: Add interaction actions, divide by impressions, and multiply by 100 to get engagement rate by impressions.

Worked Example

Likes 680, replies 92, reposts 110, quotes 24, bookmarks 61, impressions 84,000
1Step 1: Total engagements = 680 + 92 + 110 + 24 + 61 = 967
2Step 2: Engagement rate = 967 / 84,000 x 100 = 1.15%
