How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 97 ÷ 100 = 0.97
- Multiply: 0.97 × 31 = 30.07
- Check: Work backwards: 30.07 ÷ 31 × 100 = 97%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 97/100 = part/31, so part = 97 × 31 ÷ 100 = 30.07. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =97%*31. 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
30.07 is the 97% share of 31. The remaining 3% is 0.93, and the two parts add back up to 31.
Discounts: 97% off an item priced $31 saves $30.07, so you pay $0.93.
Adding and taking away 97%
Increasing 31 by 97% gives 61.07 and decreasing it by 97% gives 0.93. These do not cancel out: raising 31 by 97% and then lowering the result by 97% ends at 1.8321, because the second 97% is taken of a bigger number.
