How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 76 ÷ 100 = 0.76
  2. Multiply: 0.76 × 18 = 13.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.68 ÷ 18 × 100 = 76%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 76/100 = part/18, so part = 76 × 18 ÷ 100 = 13.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =76%*18. 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

13.68 is the 76% share of 18. The remaining 24% is 4.32, and the two parts add back up to 18.

Discounts: 76% off an item priced $18 saves $13.68, so you pay $4.32.

Adding and taking away 76%

Increasing 18 by 76% gives 31.68 and decreasing it by 76% gives 4.32. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 76% and then lowering the result by 76% ends at 7.6032, because the second 76% is taken of a bigger number.
