How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 18 ÷ 100 = 0.18
- Multiply: 0.18 × 96 = 17.28
- Check: Work backwards: 17.28 ÷ 96 × 100 = 18%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 18/100 = part/96, so part = 18 × 96 ÷ 100 = 17.28. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =18%*96. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
