How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 27 ÷ 100 = 0.27
  2. Multiply: 0.27 × 35 = 9.45
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.45 ÷ 35 × 100 = 27%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 27/100 = part/35, so part = 27 × 35 ÷ 100 = 9.45. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =27%*35. 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

9.45 is the 27% share of 35. The remaining 73% is 25.55, and the two parts add back up to 35.

Discounts: 27% off an item priced $35 saves $9.45, so you pay $25.55.

Adding and taking away 27%

Increasing 35 by 27% gives 44.45 and decreasing it by 27% gives 25.55. These do not cancel out: raising 35 by 27% and then lowering the result by 27% ends at 32.4485, because the second 27% is taken of a bigger number.
