How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 34 ÷ 100 = 0.34
  2. Multiply: 0.34 × 97 = 32.98
  3. Check: Work backwards: 32.98 ÷ 97 × 100 = 34%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/100 = part/97, so part = 34 × 97 ÷ 100 = 32.98. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34%*97. 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

32.98 is the 34% share of 97. The remaining 66% is 64.02, and the two parts add back up to 97.

Discounts: 34% off an item priced $97 saves $32.98, so you pay $64.02.

Adding and taking away 34%

Increasing 97 by 34% gives 129.98 and decreasing it by 34% gives 64.02. These do not cancel out: raising 97 by 34% and then lowering the result by 34% ends at 85.7868, because the second 34% is taken of a bigger number.
