How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 31 ÷ 100 = 0.31
- Multiply: 0.31 × 69 = 21.39
- Check: Work backwards: 21.39 ÷ 69 × 100 = 31%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/100 = part/69, so part = 31 × 69 ÷ 100 = 21.39. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =31%*69. 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
21.39 is the 31% share of 69. The remaining 69% is 47.61, and the two parts add back up to 69.

Adding and taking away 31%
Increasing 69 by 31% gives 90.39 and decreasing it by 31% gives 47.61. These do not cancel out: raising 69 by 31% and then lowering the result by 31% ends at 62.3691, because the second 31% is taken of a bigger number.
