How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
- Multiply: 0.71 × 24 = 17.04
- Check: Work backwards: 17.04 ÷ 24 × 100 = 71%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/24, so part = 71 × 24 ÷ 100 = 17.04. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =71%*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
17.04 is the 71% share of 24. The remaining 29% is 6.96, and the two parts add back up to 24.
Discounts: 71% off an item priced $24 saves $17.04, so you pay $6.96.
Adding and taking away 71%
Increasing 24 by 71% gives 41.04 and decreasing it by 71% gives 6.96. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 11.9016, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
