How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
- Multiply: 0.13 × 74 = 9.62
- Check: Work backwards: 9.62 ÷ 74 × 100 = 13%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/74, so part = 13 × 74 ÷ 100 = 9.62. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =13%*74. 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
9.62 is the 13% share of 74. The remaining 87% is 64.38, and the two parts add back up to 74.

Adding and taking away 13%
Increasing 74 by 13% gives 83.62 and decreasing it by 13% gives 64.38. These do not cancel out: raising 74 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 72.7494, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
