How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 9 ÷ 100 = 0.09
  2. Multiply: 0.09 × 37 = 3.33
  3. Check: Work backwards: 3.33 ÷ 37 × 100 = 9%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 9/100 = part/37, so part = 9 × 37 ÷ 100 = 3.33. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =9%*37. 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

3.33 is the 9% share of 37. The remaining 91% is 33.67, and the two parts add back up to 37.

Discounts: 9% off an item priced $37 saves $3.33, so you pay $33.67.

Adding and taking away 9%

Increasing 37 by 9% gives 40.33 and decreasing it by 9% gives 33.67. These do not cancel out: raising 37 by 9% and then lowering the result by 9% ends at 36.7003, because the second 9% is taken of a bigger number.
