To multiply the percentages, we first convert them to decimal form.

23% can be expressed as:

\[ 23% = \frac{23}{100} = 0.23 \]

114% can be expressed as:

\[ 114% = \frac{114}{100} = 1.14 \]

Now, we will multiply these two decimal values together:

\[ 0.23 \times 1.14 \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ 0.23 \times 1.14 = 0.2622 \]

To express \(0.2622\) as a percentage, we multiply by 100:

\[ 0.2622 \times 100 = 26.22% \]

Thus, the final answer in simplified percentage form is:

\[ \boxed{26.22%} \]
