How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 43 ÷ 100 = 0.43
- Multiply: 0.43 × 18 = 7.74
- Check: Work backwards: 7.74 ÷ 18 × 100 = 43%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/100 = part/18, so part = 43 × 18 ÷ 100 = 7.74. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =43%*18. 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

Adding and taking away 43%
Increasing 18 by 43% gives 25.74 and decreasing it by 43% gives 10.26. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 43% and then lowering the result by 43% ends at 14.6718, because the second 43% is taken of a bigger number.
