How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
- Multiply: 0.99 × 89 = 88.11
- Check: Work backwards: 88.11 ÷ 89 × 100 = 99%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/89, so part = 99 × 89 ÷ 100 = 88.11. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =99%*89. 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
88.11 is the 99% share of 89. The remaining 1% is 0.89, and the two parts add back up to 89.

Adding and taking away 99%
Increasing 89 by 99% gives 177.11 and decreasing it by 99% gives 0.89. These do not cancel out: raising 89 by 99% and then lowering the result by 99% ends at 1.7711, because the second 99% is taken of a bigger number.
