How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 91 ÷ 100 = 0.91
  2. Multiply: 0.91 × 45 = 40.95
  3. Check: Work backwards: 40.95 ÷ 45 × 100 = 91%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 91/100 = part/45, so part = 91 × 45 ÷ 100 = 40.95. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =91%*45. 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

40.95 is the 91% share of 45. The remaining 9% is 4.05, and the two parts add back up to 45.

Discounts: 91% off an item priced $45 saves $40.95, so you pay $4.05.

Adding and taking away 91%

Increasing 45 by 91% gives 85.95 and decreasing it by 91% gives 4.05. These do not cancel out: raising 45 by 91% and then lowering the result by 91% ends at 7.7355, because the second 91% is taken of a bigger number.
