How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 3 ÷ 100 = 0.03
- Multiply: 0.03 × 94 = 2.82
- Check: Work backwards: 2.82 ÷ 94 × 100 = 3%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 3/100 = part/94, so part = 3 × 94 ÷ 100 = 2.82. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =3%*94. 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
2.82 is the 3% share of 94. The remaining 97% is 91.18, and the two parts add back up to 94.

Adding and taking away 3%
Increasing 94 by 3% gives 96.82 and decreasing it by 3% gives 91.18. These do not cancel out: raising 94 by 3% and then lowering the result by 3% ends at 93.9154, because the second 3% is taken of a bigger number.
