How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 49 ÷ 100 = 0.49
- Multiply: 0.49 × 88 = 43.12
- Check: Work backwards: 43.12 ÷ 88 × 100 = 49%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/100 = part/88, so part = 49 × 88 ÷ 100 = 43.12. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =49%*88. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
