How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
  2. Multiply: 0.84 × 37 = 31.08
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.08 ÷ 37 × 100 = 84%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/37, so part = 84 × 37 ÷ 100 = 31.08. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =84%*37. 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

31.08 is the 84% share of 37. The remaining 16% is 5.92, and the two parts add back up to 37.

Discounts: 84% off an item priced $37 saves $31.08, so you pay $5.92.

Adding and taking away 84%

Increasing 37 by 84% gives 68.08 and decreasing it by 84% gives 5.92. These do not cancel out: raising 37 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 10.8928, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
