How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
  2. Multiply: 0.13 × 58 = 7.54
  3. Check: Work backwards: 7.54 ÷ 58 × 100 = 13%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/58, so part = 13 × 58 ÷ 100 = 7.54. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13%*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

7.54 is the 13% share of 58. The remaining 87% is 50.46, and the two parts add back up to 58.

Discounts: 13% off an item priced $58 saves $7.54, so you pay $50.46.

Adding and taking away 13%

Increasing 58 by 13% gives 65.54 and decreasing it by 13% gives 50.46. These do not cancel out: raising 58 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 57.0198, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
