How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 54 ÷ 100 = 0.54
- Multiply: 0.54 × 26 = 14.04
- Check: Work backwards: 14.04 ÷ 26 × 100 = 54%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 54/100 = part/26, so part = 54 × 26 ÷ 100 = 14.04. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =54%*26. 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 54%
Increasing 26 by 54% gives 40.04 and decreasing it by 54% gives 11.96. These do not cancel out: raising 26 by 54% and then lowering the result by 54% ends at 18.4184, because the second 54% is taken of a bigger number.
