How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 69 ÷ 100 = 0.69
- Multiply: 0.69 × 18 = 12.42
- Check: Work backwards: 12.42 ÷ 18 × 100 = 69%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 69/100 = part/18, so part = 69 × 18 ÷ 100 = 12.42. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =69%*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
12.42 is the 69% share of 18. The remaining 31% is 5.58, and the two parts add back up to 18.

Adding and taking away 69%
Increasing 18 by 69% gives 30.42 and decreasing it by 69% gives 5.58. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 69% and then lowering the result by 69% ends at 9.4302, because the second 69% is taken of a bigger number.
