How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 14 ÷ 100 = 0.14
- Multiply: 0.14 × 10 = 1.4
- Check: Work backwards: 1.4 ÷ 10 × 100 = 14%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/100 = part/10, so part = 14 × 10 ÷ 100 = 1.4. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =14%*10. 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
1.4 is the 14% share of 10. The remaining 86% is 8.6, and the two parts add back up to 10.
Discounts: 14% off an item priced $10 saves $1.4, so you pay $8.6.
Adding and taking away 14%
Increasing 10 by 14% gives 11.4 and decreasing it by 14% gives 8.6. These do not cancel out: raising 10 by 14% and then lowering the result by 14% ends at 9.804, because the second 14% is taken of a bigger number.
