How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 10 ÷ 100 = 0.1
  2. Multiply: 0.1 × 44 = 4.4
  3. Check: Work backwards: 4.4 ÷ 44 × 100 = 10%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 10/100 = part/44, so part = 10 × 44 ÷ 100 = 4.4. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =10%*44. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

What the result means

4.4 is the 10% share of 44. The remaining 90% is 39.6, and the two parts add back up to 44.

Discounts: 10% off an item priced $44 saves $4.4, so you pay $39.6.

Adding and taking away 10%

Increasing 44 by 10% gives 48.4 and decreasing it by 10% gives 39.6. These do not cancel out: raising 44 by 10% and then lowering the result by 10% ends at 43.56, because the second 10% is taken of a bigger number.
