How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 49 = 16.66
  3. Check: Work backwards: 16.66 ÷ 49 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/49, so part = 34 × 49 ÷ 100 = 16.66. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*49. 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

16.66 is the 34% share of 49. The remaining 66% is 32.34, and the two parts add back up to 49.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $49 saves $16.66, so you pay $32.34.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 49 by 34% gives 65.66 and decreasing it by 34% gives 32.34. These do not cancel out: raising 49 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 43.3356, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
