How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 76 ÷ 100 = 0.76
- Multiply: 0.76 × 38 = 28.88
- Check: Work backwards: 28.88 ÷ 38 × 100 = 76%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 76/100 = part/38, so part = 76 × 38 ÷ 100 = 28.88. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =76%*38. 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 76%
Increasing 38 by 76% gives 66.88 and decreasing it by 76% gives 9.12. These do not cancel out: raising 38 by 76% and then lowering the result by 76% ends at 16.0512, because the second 76% is taken of a bigger number.
