How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 24 ÷ 100 = 0.24
  2. Multiply: 0.24 × 96 = 23.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 23.04 ÷ 96 × 100 = 24%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/100 = part/96, so part = 24 × 96 ÷ 100 = 23.04. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =24%*96. 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

23.04 is the 24% share of 96. The remaining 76% is 72.96, and the two parts add back up to 96.

Discounts: 24% off an item priced $96 saves $23.04, so you pay $72.96.

Adding and taking away 24%

Increasing 96 by 24% gives 119.04 and decreasing it by 24% gives 72.96. These do not cancel out: raising 96 by 24% and then lowering the result by 24% ends at 90.4704, because the second 24% is taken of a bigger number.
