How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22
- Multiply: 0.22 × 25 = 5.5
- Check: Work backwards: 5.5 ÷ 25 × 100 = 22%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 22/100 = part/25, so part = 22 × 25 ÷ 100 = 5.5. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =22%*25. 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
5.5 is the 22% share of 25. The remaining 78% is 19.5, and the two parts add back up to 25.
Discounts: 22% off an item priced $25 saves $5.5, so you pay $19.5.
Adding and taking away 22%
Increasing 25 by 22% gives 30.5 and decreasing it by 22% gives 19.5. These do not cancel out: raising 25 by 22% and then lowering the result by 22% ends at 23.79, because the second 22% is taken of a bigger number.
