How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 94 ÷ 100 = 0.94
  2. Multiply: 0.94 × 28 = 26.32
  3. Check: Work backwards: 26.32 ÷ 28 × 100 = 94%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 94/100 = part/28, so part = 94 × 28 ÷ 100 = 26.32. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =94%*28. 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

26.32 is the 94% share of 28. The remaining 6% is 1.68, and the two parts add back up to 28.

Discounts: 94% off an item priced $28 saves $26.32, so you pay $1.68.

Adding and taking away 94%

Increasing 28 by 94% gives 54.32 and decreasing it by 94% gives 1.68. These do not cancel out: raising 28 by 94% and then lowering the result by 94% ends at 3.2592, because the second 94% is taken of a bigger number.
