How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 25 = 8.5
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.5 ÷ 25 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/25, so part = 34 × 25 ÷ 100 = 8.5. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*25. 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

8.5 is the 34% share of 25. The remaining 66% is 16.5, and the two parts add back up to 25.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $25 saves $8.5, so you pay $16.5.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 25 by 34% gives 33.5 and decreasing it by 34% gives 16.5. These do not cancel out: raising 25 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 22.11, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
