How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 37 ÷ 100 = 0.37
  2. Multiply: 0.37 × 22 = 8.14
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.14 ÷ 22 × 100 = 37%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/100 = part/22, so part = 37 × 22 ÷ 100 = 8.14. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =37%*22. 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

8.14 is the 37% share of 22. The remaining 63% is 13.86, and the two parts add back up to 22.

Discounts: 37% off an item priced $22 saves $8.14, so you pay $13.86.

Adding and taking away 37%

Increasing 22 by 37% gives 30.14 and decreasing it by 37% gives 13.86. These do not cancel out: raising 22 by 37% and then lowering the result by 37% ends at 18.9882, because the second 37% is taken of a bigger number.
