How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 14 ÷ 100 = 0.14
- Multiply: 0.14 × 1 = 0.14
- Check: Work backwards: 0.14 ÷ 1 × 100 = 14%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/100 = part/1, so part = 14 × 1 ÷ 100 = 0.14. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =14%*1. 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
0.14 is the 14% share of 1. The remaining 86% is 0.86, and the two parts add back up to 1.
Discounts: 14% off an item priced $1 saves $0.14, so you pay $0.86.
Adding and taking away 14%
Increasing 1 by 14% gives 1.14 and decreasing it by 14% gives 0.86. These do not cancel out: raising 1 by 14% and then lowering the result by 14% ends at 0.9804, because the second 14% is taken of a bigger number.
