How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22
  2. Multiply: 0.22 × 37 = 8.14
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.14 ÷ 37 × 100 = 22%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 22/100 = part/37, so part = 22 × 37 ÷ 100 = 8.14. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =22%*37. 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

8.14 is the 22% share of 37. The remaining 78% is 28.86, and the two parts add back up to 37.

Discounts: 22% off an item priced $37 saves $8.14, so you pay $28.86.

Adding and taking away 22%

Increasing 37 by 22% gives 45.14 and decreasing it by 22% gives 28.86. These do not cancel out: raising 37 by 22% and then lowering the result by 22% ends at 35.2092, because the second 22% is taken of a bigger number.
