How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 11 ÷ 100 = 0.11
- Multiply: 0.11 × 70 = 7.7
- Check: Work backwards: 7.7 ÷ 70 × 100 = 11%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/100 = part/70, so part = 11 × 70 ÷ 100 = 7.7. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =11%*70. 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
7.7 is the 11% share of 70. The remaining 89% is 62.3, and the two parts add back up to 70.
Discounts: 11% off an item priced $70 saves $7.7, so you pay $62.3.
Adding and taking away 11%
Increasing 70 by 11% gives 77.7 and decreasing it by 11% gives 62.3. These do not cancel out: raising 70 by 11% and then lowering the result by 11% ends at 69.153, because the second 11% is taken of a bigger number.
