How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 21 ÷ 100 = 0.21
- Multiply: 0.21 × 11 = 2.31
- Check: Work backwards: 2.31 ÷ 11 × 100 = 21%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 21/100 = part/11, so part = 21 × 11 ÷ 100 = 2.31. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =21%*11. 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
2.31 is the 21% share of 11. The remaining 79% is 8.69, and the two parts add back up to 11.
Discounts: 21% off an item priced $11 saves $2.31, so you pay $8.69.
Adding and taking away 21%
Increasing 11 by 21% gives 13.31 and decreasing it by 21% gives 8.69. These do not cancel out: raising 11 by 21% and then lowering the result by 21% ends at 10.5149, because the second 21% is taken of a bigger number.
