How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 340 ÷ 100 = 3.4
  2. Multiply: 3.4 × 25 = 85
  3. Check: Work backwards: 85 ÷ 25 × 100 = 340%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 340/100 = part/25, so part = 340 × 25 ÷ 100 = 85. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =340%*25. 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

Because 340% is more than 100%, the answer is bigger than 25: it is 3.4 times 25.

Mark-ups: pricing an item at 340% of its $25 cost means selling it for $85.

Adding and taking away 340%

Increasing 25 by 340% gives 110. These do not cancel out: raising 25 by 340% and then lowering the result by 340% ends at -264, because the second 340% is taken of a bigger number.
