How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 91 ÷ 100 = 0.91
  2. Multiply: 0.91 × 10 = 9.1
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.1 ÷ 10 × 100 = 91%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 91/100 = part/10, so part = 91 × 10 ÷ 100 = 9.1. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =91%*10. 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

9.1 is the 91% share of 10. The remaining 9% is 0.9, and the two parts add back up to 10.

Discounts: 91% off an item priced $10 saves $9.1, so you pay $0.9.

Adding and taking away 91%

Increasing 10 by 91% gives 19.1 and decreasing it by 91% gives 0.9. These do not cancel out: raising 10 by 91% and then lowering the result by 91% ends at 1.719, because the second 91% is taken of a bigger number.
