How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 93 ÷ 100 = 0.93
  2. Multiply: 0.93 × 97 = 90.21
  3. Check: Work backwards: 90.21 ÷ 97 × 100 = 93%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 93/100 = part/97, so part = 93 × 97 ÷ 100 = 90.21. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =93%*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.

What the result means

90.21 is the 93% share of 97. The remaining 7% is 6.79, and the two parts add back up to 97.

Discounts: 93% off an item priced $97 saves $90.21, so you pay $6.79.

Adding and taking away 93%

Increasing 97 by 93% gives 187.21 and decreasing it by 93% gives 6.79. These do not cancel out: raising 97 by 93% and then lowering the result by 93% ends at 13.1047, because the second 93% is taken of a bigger number.
