How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 24 ÷ 100 = 0.24
- Multiply: 0.24 × 99 = 23.76
- Check: Work backwards: 23.76 ÷ 99 × 100 = 24%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/100 = part/99, so part = 24 × 99 ÷ 100 = 23.76. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =24%*99. 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
23.76 is the 24% share of 99. The remaining 76% is 75.24, and the two parts add back up to 99.

Adding and taking away 24%
Increasing 99 by 24% gives 122.76 and decreasing it by 24% gives 75.24. These do not cancel out: raising 99 by 24% and then lowering the result by 24% ends at 93.2976, because the second 24% is taken of a bigger number.
