How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
  2. Multiply: 0.99 × 91 = 90.09
  3. Check: Work backwards: 90.09 ÷ 91 × 100 = 99%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/91, so part = 99 × 91 ÷ 100 = 90.09. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =99%*91. 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

90.09 is the 99% share of 91. The remaining 1% is 0.91, and the two parts add back up to 91.

Discounts: 99% off an item priced $91 saves $90.09, so you pay $0.91.

Adding and taking away 99%

Increasing 91 by 99% gives 181.09 and decreasing it by 99% gives 0.91. These do not cancel out: raising 91 by 99% and then lowering the result by 99% ends at 1.8109, because the second 99% is taken of a bigger number.
