How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 21 ÷ 100 = 0.21
- Multiply: 0.21 × 33 = 6.93
- Check: Work backwards: 6.93 ÷ 33 × 100 = 21%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 21/100 = part/33, so part = 21 × 33 ÷ 100 = 6.93. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =21%*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
6.93 is the 21% share of 33. The remaining 79% is 26.07, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Adding and taking away 21%
Increasing 33 by 21% gives 39.93 and decreasing it by 21% gives 26.07. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 21% and then lowering the result by 21% ends at 31.5447, because the second 21% is taken of a bigger number.
