How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 31 = 10.54
  3. Check: Work backwards: 10.54 ÷ 31 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/31, so part = 34 × 31 ÷ 100 = 10.54. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*31. 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

10.54 is the 34% share of 31. The remaining 66% is 20.46, and the two parts add back up to 31.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $31 saves $10.54, so you pay $20.46.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 31 by 34% gives 41.54 and decreasing it by 34% gives 20.46. These do not cancel out: raising 31 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 27.4164, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
