Add a percent to a dollar amount HELP!

[Jessgermain]

I've been sitting here forever trying to figure out how write the formula to add a percent to a dollar amount.
$26.24 is in L46 and I need to add 19% to that. I've tried =L46+19% but it reads it as $0.19 and returns a value of $26.43 instead of $31.23. Can anyone help?????

=L46*1.19
