4 + 51%
6.04

How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 51 ÷ 100 = 0.51
  2. Multiply: 0.51 × 4 = 2.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 2.04 ÷ 4 × 100 = 51%.

In a spreadsheet: =51%*4. 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

2.04 is the 51% share of 4. The remaining 49% is 1.96, and the two parts add back up to 4.

Discounts: 51% off an item priced $4 saves $2.04, so you pay $1.96.

Adding and taking away 51%

Increasing 4 by 51% gives 6.04 and decreasing it by 51% gives 1.96. These do not cancel out: raising 4 by 51% and then lowering the result by 51% ends at 2.9596, because the second 51% is taken of a bigger number.
