How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 24 = 8.16
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.16 ÷ 24 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/24, so part = 34 × 24 ÷ 100 = 8.16. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*24. 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

8.16 is the 34% share of 24. The remaining 66% is 15.84, and the two parts add back up to 24.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $24 saves $8.16, so you pay $15.84.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 24 by 34% gives 32.16 and decreasing it by 34% gives 15.84. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 21.2256, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
