How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 48 ÷ 100 = 0.48
  2. Multiply: 0.48 × 96 = 46.08
  3. Check: Work backwards: 46.08 ÷ 96 × 100 = 48%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 48/100 = part/96, so part = 48 × 96 ÷ 100 = 46.08. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =48%*96. 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

46.08 is the 48% share of 96. The remaining 52% is 49.92, and the two parts add back up to 96.

Discounts: 48% off an item priced $96 saves $46.08, so you pay $49.92.

Adding and taking away 48%

Increasing 96 by 48% gives 142.08 and decreasing it by 48% gives 49.92. These do not cancel out: raising 96 by 48% and then lowering the result by 48% ends at 73.8816, because the second 48% is taken of a bigger number.
