How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 95 ÷ 100 = 0.95
- Multiply: 0.95 × 12 = 11.4
- Check: Work backwards: 11.4 ÷ 12 × 100 = 95%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 95/100 = part/12, so part = 95 × 12 ÷ 100 = 11.4. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =95%*12. 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
11.4 is the 95% share of 12. The remaining 5% is 0.6, and the two parts add back up to 12.
Discounts: 95% off an item priced $12 saves $11.4, so you pay $0.6.
Adding and taking away 95%
Increasing 12 by 95% gives 23.4 and decreasing it by 95% gives 0.6. These do not cancel out: raising 12 by 95% and then lowering the result by 95% ends at 1.17, because the second 95% is taken of a bigger number.
