How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 88 ÷ 100 = 0.88
  2. Multiply: 0.88 × 11 = 9.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.68 ÷ 11 × 100 = 88%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/100 = part/11, so part = 88 × 11 ÷ 100 = 9.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88%*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

9.68 is the 88% share of 11. The remaining 12% is 1.32, and the two parts add back up to 11.

Discounts: 88% off an item priced $11 saves $9.68, so you pay $1.32.

Adding and taking away 88%

Increasing 11 by 88% gives 20.68 and decreasing it by 88% gives 1.32. These do not cancel out: raising 11 by 88% and then lowering the result by 88% ends at 2.4816, because the second 88% is taken of a bigger number.
