How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 90 ÷ 100 = 0.9
- Multiply: 0.9 × 19 = 17.1
- Check: Work backwards: 17.1 ÷ 19 × 100 = 90%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 90/100 = part/19, so part = 90 × 19 ÷ 100 = 17.1. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =90%*19. 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
17.1 is the 90% share of 19. The remaining 10% is 1.9, and the two parts add back up to 19.
Discounts: 90% off an item priced $19 saves $17.1, so you pay $1.9.
Adding and taking away 90%
Increasing 19 by 90% gives 36.1 and decreasing it by 90% gives 1.9. These do not cancel out: raising 19 by 90% and then lowering the result by 90% ends at 3.61, because the second 90% is taken of a bigger number.
