How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 94 ÷ 100 = 0.94
  2. Multiply: 0.94 × 88 = 82.72
  3. Check: Work backwards: 82.72 ÷ 88 × 100 = 94%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 94/100 = part/88, so part = 94 × 88 ÷ 100 = 82.72. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =94%*88. 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

82.72 is the 94% share of 88. The remaining 6% is 5.28, and the two parts add back up to 88.

Discounts: 94% off an item priced $88 saves $82.72, so you pay $5.28.

Adding and taking away 94%

Increasing 88 by 94% gives 170.72 and decreasing it by 94% gives 5.28. These do not cancel out: raising 88 by 94% and then lowering the result by 94% ends at 10.2432, because the second 94% is taken of a bigger number.
