How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 73 ÷ 100 = 0.73
- Multiply: 0.73 × 74 = 54.02
- Check: Work backwards: 54.02 ÷ 74 × 100 = 73%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 73/100 = part/74, so part = 73 × 74 ÷ 100 = 54.02. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =73%*74. 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 73%
Increasing 74 by 73% gives 128.02 and decreasing it by 73% gives 19.98. These do not cancel out: raising 74 by 73% and then lowering the result by 73% ends at 34.5654, because the second 73% is taken of a bigger number.
