How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 8 ÷ 100 = 0.08
  2. Multiply: 0.08 × 94 = 7.52
  3. Check: Work backwards: 7.52 ÷ 94 × 100 = 8%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 8/100 = part/94, so part = 8 × 94 ÷ 100 = 7.52. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =8%*94. 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

7.52 is the 8% share of 94. The remaining 92% is 86.48, and the two parts add back up to 94.

Discounts: 8% off an item priced $94 saves $7.52, so you pay $86.48.

Adding and taking away 8%

Increasing 94 by 8% gives 101.52 and decreasing it by 8% gives 86.48. These do not cancel out: raising 94 by 8% and then lowering the result by 8% ends at 93.3984, because the second 8% is taken of a bigger number.
