How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 70 ÷ 100 = 0.7
  2. Multiply: 0.7 × 46 = 32.2
  3. Check: Work backwards: 32.2 ÷ 46 × 100 = 70%.

In a spreadsheet: =70%*46. 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

Adding and taking away 70%

Increasing 46 by 70% gives 78.2 and decreasing it by 70% gives 13.8. These do not cancel out: raising 46 by 70% and then lowering the result by 70% ends at 23.46, because the second 70% is taken of a bigger number.
