How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 43 ÷ 100 = 0.43
  2. Multiply: 0.43 × 99 = 42.57
  3. Check: Work backwards: 42.57 ÷ 99 × 100 = 43%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/100 = part/99, so part = 43 × 99 ÷ 100 = 42.57. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43%*99. 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

42.57 is the 43% share of 99. The remaining 57% is 56.43, and the two parts add back up to 99.

Discounts: 43% off an item priced $99 saves $42.57, so you pay $56.43.

Adding and taking away 43%

Increasing 99 by 43% gives 141.57 and decreasing it by 43% gives 56.43. These do not cancel out: raising 99 by 43% and then lowering the result by 43% ends at 80.6949, because the second 43% is taken of a bigger number.
