How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 18 ÷ 100 = 0.18
  2. Multiply: 0.18 × 35 = 6.3
  3. Check: Work backwards: 6.3 ÷ 35 × 100 = 18%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 18/100 = part/35, so part = 18 × 35 ÷ 100 = 6.3. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =18%*35. 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

6.3 is the 18% share of 35. The remaining 82% is 28.7, and the two parts add back up to 35.

Discounts: 18% off an item priced $35 saves $6.3, so you pay $28.7.

Adding and taking away 18%

Increasing 35 by 18% gives 41.3 and decreasing it by 18% gives 28.7. These do not cancel out: raising 35 by 18% and then lowering the result by 18% ends at 33.866, because the second 18% is taken of a bigger number.
