How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 64 ÷ 100 = 0.64
  2. Multiply: 0.64 × 24 = 15.36
  3. Check: Work backwards: 15.36 ÷ 24 × 100 = 64%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/100 = part/24, so part = 64 × 24 ÷ 100 = 15.36. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =64%*24. 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

15.36 is the 64% share of 24. The remaining 36% is 8.64, and the two parts add back up to 24.

Discounts: 64% off an item priced $24 saves $15.36, so you pay $8.64.

Adding and taking away 64%

Increasing 24 by 64% gives 39.36 and decreasing it by 64% gives 8.64. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 64% and then lowering the result by 64% ends at 14.1696, because the second 64% is taken of a bigger number.
