How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22
- Multiply: 0.22 × 74 = 16.28
- Check: Work backwards: 16.28 ÷ 74 × 100 = 22%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 22/100 = part/74, so part = 22 × 74 ÷ 100 = 16.28. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =22%*74. 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 22%
Increasing 74 by 22% gives 90.28 and decreasing it by 22% gives 57.72. These do not cancel out: raising 74 by 22% and then lowering the result by 22% ends at 70.4184, because the second 22% is taken of a bigger number.
