How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 100 ÷ 100 = 1
  2. Multiply: 1 × 88 = 88
  3. Check: Work backwards: 88 ÷ 88 × 100 = 100%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 100/100 = part/88, so part = 100 × 88 ÷ 100 = 88. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =100%*88. 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

100% of a number is the number itself, so the answer is 88.

Mark-ups: pricing an item at 100% of its $88 cost means selling it for $88.

Adding and taking away 100%

Increasing 88 by 100% gives 176. These do not cancel out: raising 88 by 100% and then lowering the result by 100% ends at 0, because the second 100% is taken of a bigger number.
