How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 36 ÷ 100 = 0.36
  2. Multiply: 0.36 × 14 = 5.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.04 ÷ 14 × 100 = 36%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 36/100 = part/14, so part = 36 × 14 ÷ 100 = 5.04. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =36%*14. 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

5.04 is the 36% share of 14. The remaining 64% is 8.96, and the two parts add back up to 14.

Discounts: 36% off an item priced $14 saves $5.04, so you pay $8.96.

Adding and taking away 36%

Increasing 14 by 36% gives 19.04 and decreasing it by 36% gives 8.96. These do not cancel out: raising 14 by 36% and then lowering the result by 36% ends at 12.1856, because the second 36% is taken of a bigger number.
