How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 475 ÷ 100 = 4.75
  2. Multiply: 4.75 × 20 = 95
  3. Check: Work backwards: 95 ÷ 20 × 100 = 475%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 475/100 = part/20, so part = 475 × 20 ÷ 100 = 95. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =475%*20. 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

Because 475% is more than 100%, the answer is bigger than 20: it is 4.75 times 20.

Mark-ups: pricing an item at 475% of its $20 cost means selling it for $95.

Adding and taking away 475%

Increasing 20 by 475% gives 115. These do not cancel out: raising 20 by 475% and then lowering the result by 475% ends at -431.25, because the second 475% is taken of a bigger number.
