How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 11 ÷ 100 = 0.11
  2. Multiply: 0.11 × 58 = 6.38
  3. Check: Work backwards: 6.38 ÷ 58 × 100 = 11%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/100 = part/58, so part = 11 × 58 ÷ 100 = 6.38. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =11%*58. 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

6.38 is the 11% share of 58. The remaining 89% is 51.62, and the two parts add back up to 58.

Discounts: 11% off an item priced $58 saves $6.38, so you pay $51.62.

Adding and taking away 11%

Increasing 58 by 11% gives 64.38 and decreasing it by 11% gives 51.62. These do not cancel out: raising 58 by 11% and then lowering the result by 11% ends at 57.2982, because the second 11% is taken of a bigger number.
