How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 95 ÷ 100 = 0.95
- Multiply: 0.95 × 18 = 17.1
- Check: Work backwards: 17.1 ÷ 18 × 100 = 95%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 95/100 = part/18, so part = 95 × 18 ÷ 100 = 17.1. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =95%*18. 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
17.1 is the 95% share of 18. The remaining 5% is 0.9, and the two parts add back up to 18.
Discounts: 95% off an item priced $18 saves $17.1, so you pay $0.9.
Adding and taking away 95%
Increasing 18 by 95% gives 35.1 and decreasing it by 95% gives 0.9. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 95% and then lowering the result by 95% ends at 1.755, because the second 95% is taken of a bigger number.
