How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 76 ÷ 100 = 0.76
  2. Multiply: 0.76 × 24 = 18.24
  3. Check: Work backwards: 18.24 ÷ 24 × 100 = 76%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 76/100 = part/24, so part = 76 × 24 ÷ 100 = 18.24. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =76%*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

18.24 is the 76% share of 24. The remaining 24% is 5.76, and the two parts add back up to 24.

Discounts: 76% off an item priced $24 saves $18.24, so you pay $5.76.

Adding and taking away 76%

Increasing 24 by 76% gives 42.24 and decreasing it by 76% gives 5.76. These do not cancel out: raising 24 by 76% and then lowering the result by 76% ends at 10.1376, because the second 76% is taken of a bigger number.
