How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 58 ÷ 100 = 0.58
- Multiply: 0.58 × 9 = 5.22
- Check: Work backwards: 5.22 ÷ 9 × 100 = 58%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 58/100 = part/9, so part = 58 × 9 ÷ 100 = 5.22. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =58%*9. 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
5.22 is the 58% share of 9. The remaining 42% is 3.78, and the two parts add back up to 9.
Discounts: 58% off an item priced $9 saves $5.22, so you pay $3.78.
Adding and taking away 58%
Increasing 9 by 58% gives 14.22 and decreasing it by 58% gives 3.78. These do not cancel out: raising 9 by 58% and then lowering the result by 58% ends at 5.9724, because the second 58% is taken of a bigger number.
