How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 14 ÷ 100 = 0.14
- Multiply: 0.14 × 26 = 3.64
- Check: Work backwards: 3.64 ÷ 26 × 100 = 14%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/100 = part/26, so part = 14 × 26 ÷ 100 = 3.64. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =14%*26. 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
3.64 is the 14% share of 26. The remaining 86% is 22.36, and the two parts add back up to 26.

Adding and taking away 14%
Increasing 26 by 14% gives 29.64 and decreasing it by 14% gives 22.36. These do not cancel out: raising 26 by 14% and then lowering the result by 14% ends at 25.4904, because the second 14% is taken of a bigger number.
