How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 52 ÷ 100 = 0.52
  2. Multiply: 0.52 × 11 = 5.72
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.72 ÷ 11 × 100 = 52%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 52/100 = part/11, so part = 52 × 11 ÷ 100 = 5.72. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =52%*11. 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

5.72 is the 52% share of 11. The remaining 48% is 5.28, and the two parts add back up to 11.

Discounts: 52% off an item priced $11 saves $5.72, so you pay $5.28.

Adding and taking away 52%

Increasing 11 by 52% gives 16.72 and decreasing it by 52% gives 5.28. These do not cancel out: raising 11 by 52% and then lowering the result by 52% ends at 8.0256, because the second 52% is taken of a bigger number.
