How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 61 ÷ 100 = 0.61
- Multiply: 0.61 × 18 = 10.98
- Check: Work backwards: 10.98 ÷ 18 × 100 = 61%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 61/100 = part/18, so part = 61 × 18 ÷ 100 = 10.98. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =61%*18. 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
10.98 is the 61% share of 18. The remaining 39% is 7.02, and the two parts add back up to 18.

Adding and taking away 61%
Increasing 18 by 61% gives 28.98 and decreasing it by 61% gives 7.02. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 61% and then lowering the result by 61% ends at 11.3022, because the second 61% is taken of a bigger number.
