How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 23 ÷ 100 = 0.23
- Multiply: 0.23 × 37 = 8.51
- Check: Work backwards: 8.51 ÷ 37 × 100 = 23%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 23/100 = part/37, so part = 23 × 37 ÷ 100 = 8.51. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =23%*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

Adding and taking away 23%
Increasing 37 by 23% gives 45.51 and decreasing it by 23% gives 28.49. These do not cancel out: raising 37 by 23% and then lowering the result by 23% ends at 35.0427, because the second 23% is taken of a bigger number.
