How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 45 ÷ 100 = 0.45
  2. Multiply: 0.45 × 43 = 19.35
  3. Check: Work backwards: 19.35 ÷ 43 × 100 = 45%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 45/100 = part/43, so part = 45 × 43 ÷ 100 = 19.35. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =45%*43. 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

19.35 is the 45% share of 43. The remaining 55% is 23.65, and the two parts add back up to 43.

Discounts: 45% off an item priced $43 saves $19.35, so you pay $23.65.

Adding and taking away 45%

Increasing 43 by 45% gives 62.35 and decreasing it by 45% gives 23.65. These do not cancel out: raising 43 by 45% and then lowering the result by 45% ends at 34.2925, because the second 45% is taken of a bigger number.
