How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 97 ÷ 100 = 0.97
- Multiply: 0.97 × 97 = 94.09
- Check: Work backwards: 94.09 ÷ 97 × 100 = 97%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 97/100 = part/97, so part = 97 × 97 ÷ 100 = 94.09. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =97%*97. 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
94.09 is the 97% share of 97. The remaining 3% is 2.91, and the two parts add back up to 97.
Discounts: 97% off an item priced $97 saves $94.09, so you pay $2.91.
Adding and taking away 97%
Increasing 97 by 97% gives 191.09 and decreasing it by 97% gives 2.91. These do not cancel out: raising 97 by 97% and then lowering the result by 97% ends at 5.7327, because the second 97% is taken of a bigger number.
