How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 37 ÷ 100 = 0.37
- Multiply: 0.37 × 98 = 36.26
- Check: Work backwards: 36.26 ÷ 98 × 100 = 37%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/100 = part/98, so part = 37 × 98 ÷ 100 = 36.26. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =37%*98. 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 98 by 37% gives 134.26 and decreasing it by 37% gives 61.74. These do not cancel out: raising 98 by 37% and then lowering the result by 37% ends at 84.5838, because the second 37% is taken of a bigger number.
