How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 25 ÷ 100 = 0.25
  2. Multiply: 0.25 × 22 = 5.5
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.5 ÷ 22 × 100 = 25%.

In a spreadsheet: =25%*22. 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 25% share of 22. The remaining 75% is 16.5, and the two parts add back up to 22.

Discounts: 25% off an item priced $22 saves $5.5, so you pay $16.5.

Adding and taking away 25%

Increasing 22 by 25% gives 27.5 and decreasing it by 25% gives 16.5. These do not cancel out: raising 22 by 25% and then lowering the result by 25% ends at 20.625, because the second 25% is taken of a bigger number.
