How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 4 ÷ 100 = 0.04
  2. Multiply: 0.04 × 22 = 0.88
  3. Check: Work backwards: 0.88 ÷ 22 × 100 = 4%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 4/100 = part/22, so part = 4 × 22 ÷ 100 = 0.88. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =4%*22. 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

0.88 is the 4% share of 22. The remaining 96% is 21.12, and the two parts add back up to 22.

Discounts: 4% off an item priced $22 saves $0.88, so you pay $21.12.

Adding and taking away 4%

Increasing 22 by 4% gives 22.88 and decreasing it by 4% gives 21.12. These do not cancel out: raising 22 by 4% and then lowering the result by 4% ends at 21.9648, because the second 4% is taken of a bigger number.
