How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 29 = 9.86
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.86 ÷ 29 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/29, so part = 34 × 29 ÷ 100 = 9.86. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*29. 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

9.86 is the 34% share of 29. The remaining 66% is 19.14, and the two parts add back up to 29.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $29 saves $9.86, so you pay $19.14.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 29 by 34% gives 38.86 and decreasing it by 34% gives 19.14. These do not cancel out: raising 29 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 25.6476, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
