How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
  2. Multiply: 0.84 × 9 = 7.56
  3. Check: Work backwards: 7.56 ÷ 9 × 100 = 84%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/9, so part = 84 × 9 ÷ 100 = 7.56. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =84%*9. 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

7.56 is the 84% share of 9. The remaining 16% is 1.44, and the two parts add back up to 9.

Discounts: 84% off an item priced $9 saves $7.56, so you pay $1.44.

Adding and taking away 84%

Increasing 9 by 84% gives 16.56 and decreasing it by 84% gives 1.44. These do not cancel out: raising 9 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 2.6496, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
