How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
  2. Multiply: 0.99 × 57 = 56.43
  3. Check: Work backwards: 56.43 ÷ 57 × 100 = 99%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/57, so part = 99 × 57 ÷ 100 = 56.43. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =99%*57. 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

56.43 is the 99% share of 57. The remaining 1% is 0.57, and the two parts add back up to 57.

Discounts: 99% off an item priced $57 saves $56.43, so you pay $0.57.

Adding and taking away 99%

Increasing 57 by 99% gives 113.43 and decreasing it by 99% gives 0.57. These do not cancel out: raising 57 by 99% and then lowering the result by 99% ends at 1.1343, because the second 99% is taken of a bigger number.
