How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 29 ÷ 100 = 0.29
- Multiply: 0.29 × 38 = 11.02
- Check: Work backwards: 11.02 ÷ 38 × 100 = 29%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/100 = part/38, so part = 29 × 38 ÷ 100 = 11.02. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =29%*38. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
