How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 90 ÷ 100 = 0.9
- Multiply: 0.9 × 95 = 85.5
- Check: Work backwards: 85.5 ÷ 95 × 100 = 90%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 90/100 = part/95, so part = 90 × 95 ÷ 100 = 85.5. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =90%*95. 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
85.5 is the 90% share of 95. The remaining 10% is 9.5, and the two parts add back up to 95.
Discounts: 90% off an item priced $95 saves $85.5, so you pay $9.5.
Adding and taking away 90%
Increasing 95 by 90% gives 180.5 and decreasing it by 90% gives 9.5. These do not cancel out: raising 95 by 90% and then lowering the result by 90% ends at 18.05, because the second 90% is taken of a bigger number.
