How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 23 ÷ 100 = 0.23
  2. Multiply: 0.23 × 35 = 8.05
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.05 ÷ 35 × 100 = 23%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 23/100 = part/35, so part = 23 × 35 ÷ 100 = 8.05. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =23%*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

8.05 is the 23% share of 35. The remaining 77% is 26.95, and the two parts add back up to 35.

Discounts: 23% off an item priced $35 saves $8.05, so you pay $26.95.

Adding and taking away 23%

Increasing 35 by 23% gives 43.05 and decreasing it by 23% gives 26.95. These do not cancel out: raising 35 by 23% and then lowering the result by 23% ends at 33.1485, because the second 23% is taken of a bigger number.
