How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 17 ÷ 100 = 0.17
- Multiply: 0.17 × 22 = 3.74
- Check: Work backwards: 3.74 ÷ 22 × 100 = 17%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 17/100 = part/22, so part = 17 × 22 ÷ 100 = 3.74. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =17%*22. 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

Adding and taking away 17%
Increasing 22 by 17% gives 25.74 and decreasing it by 17% gives 18.26. These do not cancel out: raising 22 by 17% and then lowering the result by 17% ends at 21.3642, because the second 17% is taken of a bigger number.
