How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 11 ÷ 100 = 0.11
  2. Multiply: 0.11 × 100 = 11
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11 ÷ 100 × 100 = 11%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/100 = part/100, so part = 11 × 100 ÷ 100 = 11. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =11%*100. 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

11 is the 11% share of 100. The remaining 89% is 89, and the two parts add back up to 100.

Discounts: 11% off an item priced $100 saves $11, so you pay $89.

Adding and taking away 11%

Increasing 100 by 11% gives 111 and decreasing it by 11% gives 89. These do not cancel out: raising 100 by 11% and then lowering the result by 11% ends at 98.79, because the second 11% is taken of a bigger number.
