How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
- Multiply: 0.84 × 97 = 81.48
- Check: Work backwards: 81.48 ÷ 97 × 100 = 84%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/97, so part = 84 × 97 ÷ 100 = 81.48. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =84%*97. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 84%
Increasing 97 by 84% gives 178.48 and decreasing it by 84% gives 15.52. These do not cancel out: raising 97 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 28.5568, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
