How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 49 ÷ 100 = 0.49
  2. Multiply: 0.49 × 43 = 21.07
  3. Check: Work backwards: 21.07 ÷ 43 × 100 = 49%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/100 = part/43, so part = 49 × 43 ÷ 100 = 21.07. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =49%*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

21.07 is the 49% share of 43. The remaining 51% is 21.93, and the two parts add back up to 43.

Discounts: 49% off an item priced $43 saves $21.07, so you pay $21.93.

Adding and taking away 49%

Increasing 43 by 49% gives 64.07 and decreasing it by 49% gives 21.93. These do not cancel out: raising 43 by 49% and then lowering the result by 49% ends at 32.6757, because the second 49% is taken of a bigger number.
