What is 2 times 51 percent?


Here we will show you two different yet similar ways of calculating 2 times 51 percent (2 x 51%). The idea is to show you different ways of calculating 2 times 51 percent so you will have a good understanding of the underlying process of multiplying any number with any percent.

We start by converting 51 percent to a decimal number by dividing 51 by 100 and then we multiply that decimal number by 2. Here is the math to illustrate:

51 / 100 = 0.51
2 x 0.51 = 1.02

The reason we divide 51 by 100 above is because 51 percent means per 100. You can actually divide by 100 after you multiply 2 by 51 and get the same answer. Again, here is the math to illustrate:

2 x 51 = 102
102 / 100 = 1.02

The key is to remember is that "percent" in 51 percent means per hundred and you have to adjust for that with problems like this. To summarize, here is 2 times 51 percent with the answer:
