How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 89 ÷ 100 = 0.89
  2. Multiply: 0.89 × 11 = 9.79
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.79 ÷ 11 × 100 = 89%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 89/100 = part/11, so part = 89 × 11 ÷ 100 = 9.79. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =89%*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

9.79 is the 89% share of 11. The remaining 11% is 1.21, and the two parts add back up to 11.

Discounts: 89% off an item priced $11 saves $9.79, so you pay $1.21.

Adding and taking away 89%

Increasing 11 by 89% gives 20.79 and decreasing it by 89% gives 1.21. These do not cancel out: raising 11 by 89% and then lowering the result by 89% ends at 2.2869, because the second 89% is taken of a bigger number.
