How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 13 = 4.42
  3. Check: Work backwards: 4.42 ÷ 13 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/13, so part = 34 × 13 ÷ 100 = 4.42. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*13. 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

4.42 is the 34% share of 13. The remaining 66% is 8.58, and the two parts add back up to 13.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $13 saves $4.42, so you pay $8.58.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 13 by 34% gives 17.42 and decreasing it by 34% gives 8.58. These do not cancel out: raising 13 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 11.4972, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
