How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 18 ÷ 100 = 0.18
- Multiply: 0.18 × 18 = 3.24
- Check: Work backwards: 3.24 ÷ 18 × 100 = 18%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 18/100 = part/18, so part = 18 × 18 ÷ 100 = 3.24. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =18%*18. 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
3.24 is the 18% share of 18. The remaining 82% is 14.76, and the two parts add back up to 18.
Discounts: 18% off an item priced $18 saves $3.24, so you pay $14.76.
Adding and taking away 18%
Increasing 18 by 18% gives 21.24 and decreasing it by 18% gives 14.76. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 18% and then lowering the result by 18% ends at 17.4168, because the second 18% is taken of a bigger number.
