How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 29 ÷ 100 = 0.29
  2. Multiply: 0.29 × 45 = 13.05
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.05 ÷ 45 × 100 = 29%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/100 = part/45, so part = 29 × 45 ÷ 100 = 13.05. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29%*45. 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

13.05 is the 29% share of 45. The remaining 71% is 31.95, and the two parts add back up to 45.

Discounts: 29% off an item priced $45 saves $13.05, so you pay $31.95.

Adding and taking away 29%

Increasing 45 by 29% gives 58.05 and decreasing it by 29% gives 31.95. These do not cancel out: raising 45 by 29% and then lowering the result by 29% ends at 41.2155, because the second 29% is taken of a bigger number.
