How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 18 ÷ 100 = 0.18
- Multiply: 0.18 × 34 = 6.12
- Check: Work backwards: 6.12 ÷ 34 × 100 = 18%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 18/100 = part/34, so part = 18 × 34 ÷ 100 = 6.12. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =18%*34. 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 18%
Increasing 34 by 18% gives 40.12 and decreasing it by 18% gives 27.88. These do not cancel out: raising 34 by 18% and then lowering the result by 18% ends at 32.8984, because the second 18% is taken of a bigger number.
