How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 94 ÷ 100 = 0.94
  2. Multiply: 0.94 × 45 = 42.3
  3. Check: Work backwards: 42.3 ÷ 45 × 100 = 94%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 94/100 = part/45, so part = 94 × 45 ÷ 100 = 42.3. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =94%*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

42.3 is the 94% share of 45. The remaining 6% is 2.7, and the two parts add back up to 45.

Discounts: 94% off an item priced $45 saves $42.3, so you pay $2.7.

Adding and taking away 94%

Increasing 45 by 94% gives 87.3 and decreasing it by 94% gives 2.7. These do not cancel out: raising 45 by 94% and then lowering the result by 94% ends at 5.238, because the second 94% is taken of a bigger number.
