How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 57 ÷ 100 = 0.57
- Multiply: 0.57 × 16 = 9.12
- Check: Work backwards: 9.12 ÷ 16 × 100 = 57%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/100 = part/16, so part = 57 × 16 ÷ 100 = 9.12. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =57%*16. 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
9.12 is the 57% share of 16. The remaining 43% is 6.88, and the two parts add back up to 16.
Discounts: 57% off an item priced $16 saves $9.12, so you pay $6.88.
Adding and taking away 57%
Increasing 16 by 57% gives 25.12 and decreasing it by 57% gives 6.88. These do not cancel out: raising 16 by 57% and then lowering the result by 57% ends at 10.8016, because the second 57% is taken of a bigger number.
