How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 24 ÷ 100 = 0.24
- Multiply: 0.24 × 23 = 5.52
- Check: Work backwards: 5.52 ÷ 23 × 100 = 24%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/100 = part/23, so part = 24 × 23 ÷ 100 = 5.52. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =24%*23. 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 24%
Increasing 23 by 24% gives 28.52 and decreasing it by 24% gives 17.48. These do not cancel out: raising 23 by 24% and then lowering the result by 24% ends at 21.6752, because the second 24% is taken of a bigger number.
