How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
  2. Multiply: 0.71 × 34 = 24.14
  3. Check: Work backwards: 24.14 ÷ 34 × 100 = 71%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/34, so part = 71 × 34 ÷ 100 = 24.14. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =71%*34. 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

24.14 is the 71% share of 34. The remaining 29% is 9.86, and the two parts add back up to 34.

Discounts: 71% off an item priced $34 saves $24.14, so you pay $9.86.

Adding and taking away 71%

Increasing 34 by 71% gives 58.14 and decreasing it by 71% gives 9.86. These do not cancel out: raising 34 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 16.8606, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
