How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
- Multiply: 0.84 × 54 = 45.36
- Check: Work backwards: 45.36 ÷ 54 × 100 = 84%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/54, so part = 84 × 54 ÷ 100 = 45.36. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =84%*54. 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
45.36 is the 84% share of 54. The remaining 16% is 8.64, and the two parts add back up to 54.

Adding and taking away 84%
Increasing 54 by 84% gives 99.36 and decreasing it by 84% gives 8.64. These do not cancel out: raising 54 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 15.8976, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
