How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
- Multiply: 0.99 × 38 = 37.62
- Check: Work backwards: 37.62 ÷ 38 × 100 = 99%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/38, so part = 99 × 38 ÷ 100 = 37.62. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =99%*38. 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
37.62 is the 99% share of 38. The remaining 1% is 0.38, and the two parts add back up to 38.

Adding and taking away 99%
Increasing 38 by 99% gives 75.62 and decreasing it by 99% gives 0.38. These do not cancel out: raising 38 by 99% and then lowering the result by 99% ends at 0.7562, because the second 99% is taken of a bigger number.
