How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 950 ÷ 100 = 9.5
  2. Multiply: 9.5 × 10 = 95
  3. Check: Work backwards: 95 ÷ 10 × 100 = 950%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 950/100 = part/10, so part = 950 × 10 ÷ 100 = 95. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =950%*10. 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

Because 950% is more than 100%, the answer is bigger than 10: it is 9.5 times 10.

Mark-ups: pricing an item at 950% of its $10 cost means selling it for $95.

Adding and taking away 950%

Increasing 10 by 950% gives 105. These do not cancel out: raising 10 by 950% and then lowering the result by 950% ends at -892.5, because the second 950% is taken of a bigger number.
