What's the formula for working out percentages again?

[Monkeytrousers]

I am a dumbo at maths.

I need to workout 5% of various numnbers - so if I wanted to work out 5% of £88 do I 5x88/100=£4.40??

divide by 100, times by 5

MT - you are right
so is LOW

Cheers - I have how do I cope with all this as a single mum head on!
