How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 37 ÷ 100 = 0.37
  2. Multiply: 0.37 × 30 = 11.1
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11.1 ÷ 30 × 100 = 37%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/100 = part/30, so part = 37 × 30 ÷ 100 = 11.1. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =37%*30. 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

11.1 is the 37% share of 30. The remaining 63% is 18.9, and the two parts add back up to 30.

Discounts: 37% off an item priced $30 saves $11.1, so you pay $18.9.

Adding and taking away 37%

Increasing 30 by 37% gives 41.1 and decreasing it by 37% gives 18.9. These do not cancel out: raising 30 by 37% and then lowering the result by 37% ends at 25.893, because the second 37% is taken of a bigger number.
