How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22
  2. Multiply: 0.22 × 88 = 19.36
  3. Check: Work backwards: 19.36 ÷ 88 × 100 = 22%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 22/100 = part/88, so part = 22 × 88 ÷ 100 = 19.36. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =22%*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

19.36 is the 22% share of 88. The remaining 78% is 68.64, and the two parts add back up to 88.

Discounts: 22% off an item priced $88 saves $19.36, so you pay $68.64.

Adding and taking away 22%

Increasing 88 by 22% gives 107.36 and decreasing it by 22% gives 68.64. These do not cancel out: raising 88 by 22% and then lowering the result by 22% ends at 83.7408, because the second 22% is taken of a bigger number.
