How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 10 ÷ 100 = 0.1
  2. Divide the part by it: 95 ÷ 0.1 = 950
  3. Check: Work forwards: 10% of 950 is 0.1 × 950 = 95.

Another method. As a proportion: 95/whole = 10/100, so whole = 95 × 100 ÷ 10 = 950. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =95/10%. Multiplying the part by the percentage instead of dividing gives a smaller number. The whole must be bigger than the part whenever the percentage is below 100.

What the result means

95 is the 10% share of 950. The other 90% is 855.

Discounts: if 95 dollars is a 10% saving, the original price was $950.

Using 1% as a stepping stone

If 10% is 95, then 1% is 95 ÷ 10 = 9.5, and any other percentage follows: 10% is 95, 50% is 475 and 100% is 950.
