How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 38 ÷ 100 = 0.38
  2. Multiply: 0.38 × 35 = 13.3
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.3 ÷ 35 × 100 = 38%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 38/100 = part/35, so part = 38 × 35 ÷ 100 = 13.3. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =38%*35. 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

13.3 is the 38% share of 35. The remaining 62% is 21.7, and the two parts add back up to 35.

Discounts: 38% off an item priced $35 saves $13.3, so you pay $21.7.

Adding and taking away 38%

Increasing 35 by 38% gives 48.3 and decreasing it by 38% gives 21.7. These do not cancel out: raising 35 by 38% and then lowering the result by 38% ends at 29.946, because the second 38% is taken of a bigger number.
