How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 49 ÷ 100 = 0.49
  2. Multiply: 0.49 × 52 = 25.48
  3. Check: Work backwards: 25.48 ÷ 52 × 100 = 49%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/100 = part/52, so part = 49 × 52 ÷ 100 = 25.48. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =49%*52. 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

25.48 is the 49% share of 52. The remaining 51% is 26.52, and the two parts add back up to 52.

Discounts: 49% off an item priced $52 saves $25.48, so you pay $26.52.

Adding and taking away 49%

Increasing 52 by 49% gives 77.48 and decreasing it by 49% gives 26.52. These do not cancel out: raising 52 by 49% and then lowering the result by 49% ends at 39.5148, because the second 49% is taken of a bigger number.
