How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13
  2. Multiply: 0.13 × 33 = 4.29
  3. Check: Work backwards: 4.29 ÷ 33 × 100 = 13%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/100 = part/33, so part = 13 × 33 ÷ 100 = 4.29. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13%*33. 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

4.29 is the 13% share of 33. The remaining 87% is 28.71, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 13% off an item priced $33 saves $4.29, so you pay $28.71.

Adding and taking away 13%

Increasing 33 by 13% gives 37.29 and decreasing it by 13% gives 28.71. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 13% and then lowering the result by 13% ends at 32.4423, because the second 13% is taken of a bigger number.
