How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 14 ÷ 100 = 0.14
  2. Multiply: 0.14 × 97 = 13.58
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.58 ÷ 97 × 100 = 14%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/100 = part/97, so part = 14 × 97 ÷ 100 = 13.58. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =14%*97. 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

13.58 is the 14% share of 97. The remaining 86% is 83.42, and the two parts add back up to 97.

Discounts: 14% off an item priced $97 saves $13.58, so you pay $83.42.

Adding and taking away 14%

Increasing 97 by 14% gives 110.58 and decreasing it by 14% gives 83.42. These do not cancel out: raising 97 by 14% and then lowering the result by 14% ends at 95.0988, because the second 14% is taken of a bigger number.
