How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 37 ÷ 100 = 0.37
- Multiply: 0.37 × 74 = 27.38
- Check: Work backwards: 27.38 ÷ 74 × 100 = 37%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/100 = part/74, so part = 37 × 74 ÷ 100 = 27.38. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =37%*74. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 37%
Increasing 74 by 37% gives 101.38 and decreasing it by 37% gives 46.62. These do not cancel out: raising 74 by 37% and then lowering the result by 37% ends at 63.8694, because the second 37% is taken of a bigger number.
