How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 73 ÷ 100 = 0.73
- Multiply: 0.73 × 24 = 17.52
- Check: Work backwards: 17.52 ÷ 24 × 100 = 73%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 73/100 = part/24, so part = 73 × 24 ÷ 100 = 17.52. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =73%*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
17.52 is the 73% share of 24. The remaining 27% is 6.48, and the two parts add back up to 24.

Adding and taking away 73%
Increasing 24 by 73% gives 41.52 and decreasing it by 73% gives 6.48. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 73% and then lowering the result by 73% ends at 11.2104, because the second 73% is taken of a bigger number.
