How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 46 ÷ 100 = 0.46
  2. Multiply: 0.46 × 14 = 6.44
  3. Check: Work backwards: 6.44 ÷ 14 × 100 = 46%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 46/100 = part/14, so part = 46 × 14 ÷ 100 = 6.44. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =46%*14. 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

6.44 is the 46% share of 14. The remaining 54% is 7.56, and the two parts add back up to 14.

Discounts: 46% off an item priced $14 saves $6.44, so you pay $7.56.

Adding and taking away 46%

Increasing 14 by 46% gives 20.44 and decreasing it by 46% gives 7.56. These do not cancel out: raising 14 by 46% and then lowering the result by 46% ends at 11.0376, because the second 46% is taken of a bigger number.
