How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 51 ÷ 100 = 0.51
- Multiply: 0.51 × 35 = 17.85
- Check: Work backwards: 17.85 ÷ 35 × 100 = 51%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 51/100 = part/35, so part = 51 × 35 ÷ 100 = 17.85. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =51%*35. 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
17.85 is the 51% share of 35. The remaining 49% is 17.15, and the two parts add back up to 35.

Adding and taking away 51%
Increasing 35 by 51% gives 52.85 and decreasing it by 51% gives 17.15. These do not cancel out: raising 35 by 51% and then lowering the result by 51% ends at 25.8965, because the second 51% is taken of a bigger number.
