How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
- Multiply: 0.34 × 51 = 17.34
- Check: Work backwards: 17.34 ÷ 51 × 100 = 34%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/51, so part = 34 × 51 ÷ 100 = 17.34. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =34%*51. 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

Adding and taking away 34%
Increasing 51 by 34% gives 68.34 and decreasing it by 34% gives 33.66. These do not cancel out: raising 51 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 45.1044, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
