How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 17 ÷ 100 = 0.17
- Multiply: 0.17 × 64 = 10.88
- Check: Work backwards: 10.88 ÷ 64 × 100 = 17%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 17/100 = part/64, so part = 17 × 64 ÷ 100 = 10.88. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =17%*64. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 17%
Increasing 64 by 17% gives 74.88 and decreasing it by 17% gives 53.12. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 17% and then lowering the result by 17% ends at 62.1504, because the second 17% is taken of a bigger number.
