What is 48 percent of 888?

Answer: 426.24

Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.

Lets assume 48 percent of 888 is X.

Therefore, we can also say, X = 48% of 888

48% can also be written as 48/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.

So, X = 48/100 × 888

Or, X = 0.48 × 888

So, X = 426.24

So, 48% of 888 is 426.24

(You may also first multiply 48 with 888, and then divide by 100 to find the answer, if that's easier for you.)

Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.

Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100

LHS (Percentage) = 48

RHS = 426.24/888 × 100

Or, RHS = 0.48 × 100

So, RHS = 48

We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
