How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 24 ÷ 100 = 0.24
  2. Multiply: 0.24 × 24 = 5.76
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.76 ÷ 24 × 100 = 24%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/100 = part/24, so part = 24 × 24 ÷ 100 = 5.76. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =24%*24. 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

5.76 is the 24% share of 24. The remaining 76% is 18.24, and the two parts add back up to 24.

Discounts: 24% off an item priced $24 saves $5.76, so you pay $18.24.

Adding and taking away 24%

Increasing 24 by 24% gives 29.76 and decreasing it by 24% gives 18.24. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 24% and then lowering the result by 24% ends at 22.6176, because the second 24% is taken of a bigger number.
