How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 46 ÷ 100 = 0.46
  2. Multiply: 0.46 × 24 = 11.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11.04 ÷ 24 × 100 = 46%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 46/100 = part/24, so part = 46 × 24 ÷ 100 = 11.04. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =46%*24. 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

11.04 is the 46% share of 24. The remaining 54% is 12.96, and the two parts add back up to 24.

Discounts: 46% off an item priced $24 saves $11.04, so you pay $12.96.

Adding and taking away 46%

Increasing 24 by 46% gives 35.04 and decreasing it by 46% gives 12.96. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 46% and then lowering the result by 46% ends at 18.9216, because the second 46% is taken of a bigger number.
