How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
  2. Multiply: 0.13 × 88 = 11.44
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11.44 ÷ 88 × 100 = 13%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/88, so part = 13 × 88 ÷ 100 = 11.44. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13%*88. 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

11.44 is the 13% share of 88. The remaining 87% is 76.56, and the two parts add back up to 88.

Discounts: 13% off an item priced $88 saves $11.44, so you pay $76.56.

Adding and taking away 13%

Increasing 88 by 13% gives 99.44 and decreasing it by 13% gives 76.56. These do not cancel out: raising 88 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 86.5128, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
