How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 25 ÷ 100 = 0.25
  2. Multiply: 0.25 × 320 = 80
  3. Check: Work backwards: 80 ÷ 320 × 100 = 25%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 25/100 = part/320, so part = 25 × 320 ÷ 100 = 80. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =25%*320. 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

80 is the 25% share of 320. The remaining 75% is 240, and the two parts add back up to 320.

Discounts: 25% off an item priced $320 saves $80, so you pay $240.

Adding and taking away 25%

Increasing 320 by 25% gives 400 and decreasing it by 25% gives 240. These do not cancel out: raising 320 by 25% and then lowering the result by 25% ends at 300, because the second 25% is taken of a bigger number.
