How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 95 ÷ 100 = 0.95
- Multiply: 0.95 × 48 = 45.6
- Check: Work backwards: 45.6 ÷ 48 × 100 = 95%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 95/100 = part/48, so part = 95 × 48 ÷ 100 = 45.6. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =95%*48. 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
45.6 is the 95% share of 48. The remaining 5% is 2.4, and the two parts add back up to 48.
Discounts: 95% off an item priced $48 saves $45.6, so you pay $2.4.
Adding and taking away 95%
Increasing 48 by 95% gives 93.6 and decreasing it by 95% gives 2.4. These do not cancel out: raising 48 by 95% and then lowering the result by 95% ends at 4.68, because the second 95% is taken of a bigger number.
