How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 96 ÷ 100 = 0.96
- Multiply: 0.96 × 47 = 45.12
- Check: Work backwards: 45.12 ÷ 47 × 100 = 96%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 96/100 = part/47, so part = 96 × 47 ÷ 100 = 45.12. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =96%*47. 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

Adding and taking away 96%
Increasing 47 by 96% gives 92.12 and decreasing it by 96% gives 1.88. These do not cancel out: raising 47 by 96% and then lowering the result by 96% ends at 3.6848, because the second 96% is taken of a bigger number.
