How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 37 ÷ 100 = 0.37
  2. Multiply: 0.37 × 84 = 31.08
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.08 ÷ 84 × 100 = 37%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/100 = part/84, so part = 37 × 84 ÷ 100 = 31.08. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =37%*84. 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

31.08 is the 37% share of 84. The remaining 63% is 52.92, and the two parts add back up to 84.

Discounts: 37% off an item priced $84 saves $31.08, so you pay $52.92.

Adding and taking away 37%

Increasing 84 by 37% gives 115.08 and decreasing it by 37% gives 52.92. These do not cancel out: raising 84 by 37% and then lowering the result by 37% ends at 72.5004, because the second 37% is taken of a bigger number.
