How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 45 ÷ 100 = 0.45
  2. Multiply: 0.45 × 90 = 40.5
  3. Check: Work backwards: 40.5 ÷ 90 × 100 = 45%.

In a spreadsheet: =45%*90. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 45%

Increasing 90 by 45% gives 130.5 and decreasing it by 45% gives 49.5. These do not cancel out: raising 90 by 45% and then lowering the result by 45% ends at 71.775, because the second 45% is taken of a bigger number.
