How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
  2. Multiply: 0.13 × 71 = 9.23
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.23 ÷ 71 × 100 = 13%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/71, so part = 13 × 71 ÷ 100 = 9.23. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13%*71. 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

9.23 is the 13% share of 71. The remaining 87% is 61.77, and the two parts add back up to 71.

Discounts: 13% off an item priced $71 saves $9.23, so you pay $61.77.

Adding and taking away 13%

Increasing 71 by 13% gives 80.23 and decreasing it by 13% gives 61.77. These do not cancel out: raising 71 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 69.8001, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
