How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 35 ÷ 100 = 0.35
- Multiply: 0.35 × 47 = 16.45
- Check: Work backwards: 16.45 ÷ 47 × 100 = 35%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 35/100 = part/47, so part = 35 × 47 ÷ 100 = 16.45. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =35%*47. 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 35%
Increasing 47 by 35% gives 63.45 and decreasing it by 35% gives 30.55. These do not cancel out: raising 47 by 35% and then lowering the result by 35% ends at 41.2425, because the second 35% is taken of a bigger number.
