How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 24 ÷ 100 = 0.24
  2. Multiply: 0.24 × 77 = 18.48
  3. Check: Work backwards: 18.48 ÷ 77 × 100 = 24%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/100 = part/77, so part = 24 × 77 ÷ 100 = 18.48. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =24%*77. 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

18.48 is the 24% share of 77. The remaining 76% is 58.52, and the two parts add back up to 77.

Discounts: 24% off an item priced $77 saves $18.48, so you pay $58.52.

Adding and taking away 24%

Increasing 77 by 24% gives 95.48 and decreasing it by 24% gives 58.52. These do not cancel out: raising 77 by 24% and then lowering the result by 24% ends at 72.5648, because the second 24% is taken of a bigger number.
