How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 11 ÷ 100 = 0.11
  2. Multiply: 0.11 × 34 = 3.74
  3. Check: Work backwards: 3.74 ÷ 34 × 100 = 11%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/100 = part/34, so part = 11 × 34 ÷ 100 = 3.74. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =11%*34. 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

3.74 is the 11% share of 34. The remaining 89% is 30.26, and the two parts add back up to 34.

Discounts: 11% off an item priced $34 saves $3.74, so you pay $30.26.

Adding and taking away 11%

Increasing 34 by 11% gives 37.74 and decreasing it by 11% gives 30.26. These do not cancel out: raising 34 by 11% and then lowering the result by 11% ends at 33.5886, because the second 11% is taken of a bigger number.
