How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 9 ÷ 100 = 0.09
  2. Multiply: 0.09 × 76 = 6.84
  3. Check: Work backwards: 6.84 ÷ 76 × 100 = 9%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 9/100 = part/76, so part = 9 × 76 ÷ 100 = 6.84. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =9%*76. 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

6.84 is the 9% share of 76. The remaining 91% is 69.16, and the two parts add back up to 76.

Discounts: 9% off an item priced $76 saves $6.84, so you pay $69.16.

Adding and taking away 9%

Increasing 76 by 9% gives 82.84 and decreasing it by 9% gives 69.16. These do not cancel out: raising 76 by 9% and then lowering the result by 9% ends at 75.3844, because the second 9% is taken of a bigger number.
