How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 27 ÷ 100 = 0.27
- Multiply: 0.27 × 34 = 9.18
- Check: Work backwards: 9.18 ÷ 34 × 100 = 27%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 27/100 = part/34, so part = 27 × 34 ÷ 100 = 9.18. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =27%*34. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 27%
Increasing 34 by 27% gives 43.18 and decreasing it by 27% gives 24.82. These do not cancel out: raising 34 by 27% and then lowering the result by 27% ends at 31.5214, because the second 27% is taken of a bigger number.
