How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 14 ÷ 100 = 0.14
- Multiply: 0.14 × 31 = 4.34
- Check: Work backwards: 4.34 ÷ 31 × 100 = 14%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/100 = part/31, so part = 14 × 31 ÷ 100 = 4.34. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =14%*31. 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
4.34 is the 14% share of 31. The remaining 86% is 26.66, and the two parts add back up to 31.
Discounts: 14% off an item priced $31 saves $4.34, so you pay $26.66.
Adding and taking away 14%
Increasing 31 by 14% gives 35.34 and decreasing it by 14% gives 26.66. These do not cancel out: raising 31 by 14% and then lowering the result by 14% ends at 30.3924, because the second 14% is taken of a bigger number.
