How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
  2. Multiply: 0.13 × 49 = 6.37
  3. Check: Work backwards: 6.37 ÷ 49 × 100 = 13%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/49, so part = 13 × 49 ÷ 100 = 6.37. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13%*49. 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

6.37 is the 13% share of 49. The remaining 87% is 42.63, and the two parts add back up to 49.

Discounts: 13% off an item priced $49 saves $6.37, so you pay $42.63.

Adding and taking away 13%

Increasing 49 by 13% gives 55.37 and decreasing it by 13% gives 42.63. These do not cancel out: raising 49 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 48.1719, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
