How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 52 ÷ 100 = 0.52
- Multiply: 0.52 × 1 = 0.52
- Check: Work backwards: 0.52 ÷ 1 × 100 = 52%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 52/100 = part/1, so part = 52 × 1 ÷ 100 = 0.52. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =52%*1. 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
0.52 is the 52% share of 1. The remaining 48% is 0.48, and the two parts add back up to 1.
Discounts: 52% off an item priced $1 saves $0.52, so you pay $0.48.
Adding and taking away 52%
Increasing 1 by 52% gives 1.52 and decreasing it by 52% gives 0.48. These do not cancel out: raising 1 by 52% and then lowering the result by 52% ends at 0.7296, because the second 52% is taken of a bigger number.
