How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
  2. Multiply: 0.13 × 89 = 11.57
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11.57 ÷ 89 × 100 = 13%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/89, so part = 13 × 89 ÷ 100 = 11.57. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13%*89. 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

11.57 is the 13% share of 89. The remaining 87% is 77.43, and the two parts add back up to 89.

Discounts: 13% off an item priced $89 saves $11.57, so you pay $77.43.

Adding and taking away 13%

Increasing 89 by 13% gives 100.57 and decreasing it by 13% gives 77.43. These do not cancel out: raising 89 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 87.4959, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
