How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 68 ÷ 100 = 0.68
- Multiply: 0.68 × 13 = 8.84
- Check: Work backwards: 8.84 ÷ 13 × 100 = 68%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 68/100 = part/13, so part = 68 × 13 ÷ 100 = 8.84. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =68%*13. 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
8.84 is the 68% share of 13. The remaining 32% is 4.16, and the two parts add back up to 13.
Discounts: 68% off an item priced $13 saves $8.84, so you pay $4.16.
Adding and taking away 68%
Increasing 13 by 68% gives 21.84 and decreasing it by 68% gives 4.16. These do not cancel out: raising 13 by 68% and then lowering the result by 68% ends at 6.9888, because the second 68% is taken of a bigger number.
