How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 9 ÷ 100 = 0.09
  2. Multiply: 0.09 × 35 = 3.15
  3. Check: Work backwards: 3.15 ÷ 35 × 100 = 9%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 9/100 = part/35, so part = 9 × 35 ÷ 100 = 3.15. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =9%*35. 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

3.15 is the 9% share of 35. The remaining 91% is 31.85, and the two parts add back up to 35.

Discounts: 9% off an item priced $35 saves $3.15, so you pay $31.85.

Adding and taking away 9%

Increasing 35 by 9% gives 38.15 and decreasing it by 9% gives 31.85. These do not cancel out: raising 35 by 9% and then lowering the result by 9% ends at 34.7165, because the second 9% is taken of a bigger number.
