How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 96 ÷ 100 = 0.96
  2. Multiply: 0.96 × 10 = 9.6
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.6 ÷ 10 × 100 = 96%.

In a spreadsheet: =96%*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

9.6 is the 96% share of 10. The remaining 4% is 0.4, and the two parts add back up to 10.

Discounts: 96% off an item priced $10 saves $9.6, so you pay $0.4.

Adding and taking away 96%

Increasing 10 by 96% gives 19.6 and decreasing it by 96% gives 0.4. These do not cancel out: raising 10 by 96% and then lowering the result by 96% ends at 0.784, because the second 96% is taken of a bigger number.
