How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
- Multiply: 0.84 × 74 = 62.16
- Check: Work backwards: 62.16 ÷ 74 × 100 = 84%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/74, so part = 84 × 74 ÷ 100 = 62.16. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =84%*74. 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 84%
Increasing 74 by 84% gives 136.16 and decreasing it by 84% gives 11.84. These do not cancel out: raising 74 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 21.7856, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
