How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 89 ÷ 100 = 0.89
- Multiply: 0.89 × 97 = 86.33
- Check: Work backwards: 86.33 ÷ 97 × 100 = 89%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 89/100 = part/97, so part = 89 × 97 ÷ 100 = 86.33. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =89%*97. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
