How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
- Multiply: 0.84 × 1 = 0.84
- Check: Work backwards: 0.84 ÷ 1 × 100 = 84%.
In a spreadsheet: =84%*1. 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
0.84 is the 84% share of 1. The remaining 16% is 0.16, and the two parts add back up to 1.

Adding and taking away 84%
Increasing 1 by 84% gives 1.84 and decreasing it by 84% gives 0.16. These do not cancel out: raising 1 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 0.2944, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
