How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 49 ÷ 100 = 0.49
- Multiply: 0.49 × 31 = 15.19
- Check: Work backwards: 15.19 ÷ 31 × 100 = 49%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/100 = part/31, so part = 49 × 31 ÷ 100 = 15.19. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =49%*31. 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 49%
Increasing 31 by 49% gives 46.19 and decreasing it by 49% gives 15.81. These do not cancel out: raising 31 by 49% and then lowering the result by 49% ends at 23.5569, because the second 49% is taken of a bigger number.
