How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 97 ÷ 100 = 0.97
  2. Multiply: 0.97 × 22 = 21.34
  3. Check: Work backwards: 21.34 ÷ 22 × 100 = 97%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 97/100 = part/22, so part = 97 × 22 ÷ 100 = 21.34. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =97%*22. 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

21.34 is the 97% share of 22. The remaining 3% is 0.66, and the two parts add back up to 22.

Discounts: 97% off an item priced $22 saves $21.34, so you pay $0.66.

Adding and taking away 97%

Increasing 22 by 97% gives 43.34 and decreasing it by 97% gives 0.66. These do not cancel out: raising 22 by 97% and then lowering the result by 97% ends at 1.3002, because the second 97% is taken of a bigger number.
