How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 48 ÷ 100 = 0.48
- Multiply: 0.48 × 90 = 43.2
- Check: Work backwards: 43.2 ÷ 90 × 100 = 48%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 48/100 = part/90, so part = 48 × 90 ÷ 100 = 43.2. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =48%*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.
What the result means
43.2 is the 48% share of 90. The remaining 52% is 46.8, and the two parts add back up to 90.
Discounts: 48% off an item priced $90 saves $43.2, so you pay $46.8.
Adding and taking away 48%
Increasing 90 by 48% gives 133.2 and decreasing it by 48% gives 46.8. These do not cancel out: raising 90 by 48% and then lowering the result by 48% ends at 69.264, because the second 48% is taken of a bigger number.
