How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 35 ÷ 100 = 0.35
  2. Multiply: 0.35 × 75 = 26.25
  3. Check: Work backwards: 26.25 ÷ 75 × 100 = 35%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 35/100 = part/75, so part = 35 × 75 ÷ 100 = 26.25. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =35%*75. 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

26.25 is the 35% share of 75. The remaining 65% is 48.75, and the two parts add back up to 75.

Discounts: 35% off an item priced $75 saves $26.25, so you pay $48.75.

Adding and taking away 35%

Increasing 75 by 35% gives 101.25 and decreasing it by 35% gives 48.75. These do not cancel out: raising 75 by 35% and then lowering the result by 35% ends at 65.8125, because the second 35% is taken of a bigger number.
