How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 10 ÷ 100 = 0.1
- Multiply: 0.1 × 95 = 9.5
- Check: Work backwards: 9.5 ÷ 95 × 100 = 10%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 10/100 = part/95, so part = 10 × 95 ÷ 100 = 9.5. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =10%*95. 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
9.5 is the 10% share of 95. The remaining 90% is 85.5, and the two parts add back up to 95.
Discounts: 10% off an item priced $95 saves $9.5, so you pay $85.5.
Adding and taking away 10%
Increasing 95 by 10% gives 104.5 and decreasing it by 10% gives 85.5. These do not cancel out: raising 95 by 10% and then lowering the result by 10% ends at 94.05, because the second 10% is taken of a bigger number.
