How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 52 ÷ 100 = 0.52
  2. Multiply: 0.52 × 14 = 7.28
  3. Check: Work backwards: 7.28 ÷ 14 × 100 = 52%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 52/100 = part/14, so part = 52 × 14 ÷ 100 = 7.28. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =52%*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

7.28 is the 52% share of 14. The remaining 48% is 6.72, and the two parts add back up to 14.

Discounts: 52% off an item priced $14 saves $7.28, so you pay $6.72.

Adding and taking away 52%

Increasing 14 by 52% gives 21.28 and decreasing it by 52% gives 6.72. These do not cancel out: raising 14 by 52% and then lowering the result by 52% ends at 10.2144, because the second 52% is taken of a bigger number.
