How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
- Multiply: 0.13 × 16 = 2.08
- Check: Work backwards: 2.08 ÷ 16 × 100 = 13%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/16, so part = 13 × 16 ÷ 100 = 2.08. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =13%*16. 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
2.08 is the 13% share of 16. The remaining 87% is 13.92, and the two parts add back up to 16.
Discounts: 13% off an item priced $16 saves $2.08, so you pay $13.92.
Adding and taking away 13%
Increasing 16 by 13% gives 18.08 and decreasing it by 13% gives 13.92. These do not cancel out: raising 16 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 15.7296, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
