x - 28% = 44

[Alec]

Hi all,

Using excel I am trying to create a formula in a cell to find an unknown
value when a known percentage subtracted from that value equals a known
value.

Example: X - 28% = 44


What formula do I put in the cell to find the value of X

Hi Alec,

Try:

X =44/(100-28)%

Hi Alec,
