How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 35 ÷ 100 = 0.35
  2. Multiply: 0.35 × 97 = 33.95
  3. Check: Work backwards: 33.95 ÷ 97 × 100 = 35%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 35/100 = part/97, so part = 35 × 97 ÷ 100 = 33.95. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =35%*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

33.95 is the 35% share of 97. The remaining 65% is 63.05, and the two parts add back up to 97.

Discounts: 35% off an item priced $97 saves $33.95, so you pay $63.05.

Adding and taking away 35%

Increasing 97 by 35% gives 130.95 and decreasing it by 35% gives 63.05. These do not cancel out: raising 97 by 35% and then lowering the result by 35% ends at 85.1175, because the second 35% is taken of a bigger number.
