How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 43 = 14.62
  3. Check: Work backwards: 14.62 ÷ 43 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/43, so part = 34 × 43 ÷ 100 = 14.62. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*43. 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

14.62 is the 34% share of 43. The remaining 66% is 28.38, and the two parts add back up to 43.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $43 saves $14.62, so you pay $28.38.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 43 by 34% gives 57.62 and decreasing it by 34% gives 28.38. These do not cancel out: raising 43 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 38.0292, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
