How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 97 ÷ 100 = 0.97
- Multiply: 0.97 × 54 = 52.38
- Check: Work backwards: 52.38 ÷ 54 × 100 = 97%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 97/100 = part/54, so part = 97 × 54 ÷ 100 = 52.38. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =97%*54. 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 97%
Increasing 54 by 97% gives 106.38 and decreasing it by 97% gives 1.62. These do not cancel out: raising 54 by 97% and then lowering the result by 97% ends at 3.1914, because the second 97% is taken of a bigger number.
