How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 52 ÷ 100 = 0.52
  2. Multiply: 0.52 × 26 = 13.52
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.52 ÷ 26 × 100 = 52%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 52/100 = part/26, so part = 52 × 26 ÷ 100 = 13.52. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =52%*26. 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

13.52 is the 52% share of 26. The remaining 48% is 12.48, and the two parts add back up to 26.

Discounts: 52% off an item priced $26 saves $13.52, so you pay $12.48.

Adding and taking away 52%

Increasing 26 by 52% gives 39.52 and decreasing it by 52% gives 12.48. These do not cancel out: raising 26 by 52% and then lowering the result by 52% ends at 18.9696, because the second 52% is taken of a bigger number.
