How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 71 = 24.14
  3. Check: Work backwards: 24.14 ÷ 71 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/71, so part = 34 × 71 ÷ 100 = 24.14. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*71. 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

24.14 is the 34% share of 71. The remaining 66% is 46.86, and the two parts add back up to 71.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $71 saves $24.14, so you pay $46.86.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 71 by 34% gives 95.14 and decreasing it by 34% gives 46.86. These do not cancel out: raising 71 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 62.7924, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
