How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 48 ÷ 100 = 0.48
- Multiply: 0.48 × 74 = 35.52
- Check: Work backwards: 35.52 ÷ 74 × 100 = 48%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 48/100 = part/74, so part = 48 × 74 ÷ 100 = 35.52. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =48%*74. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 48%
Increasing 74 by 48% gives 109.52 and decreasing it by 48% gives 38.48. These do not cancel out: raising 74 by 48% and then lowering the result by 48% ends at 56.9504, because the second 48% is taken of a bigger number.
