How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 98 ÷ 100 = 0.98
- Multiply: 0.98 × 45 = 44.1
- Check: Work backwards: 44.1 ÷ 45 × 100 = 98%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 98/100 = part/45, so part = 98 × 45 ÷ 100 = 44.1. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =98%*45. 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
44.1 is the 98% share of 45. The remaining 2% is 0.9, and the two parts add back up to 45.
Discounts: 98% off an item priced $45 saves $44.1, so you pay $0.9.
Adding and taking away 98%
Increasing 45 by 98% gives 89.1 and decreasing it by 98% gives 0.9. These do not cancel out: raising 45 by 98% and then lowering the result by 98% ends at 1.782, because the second 98% is taken of a bigger number.
