How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 25 ÷ 100 = 0.25
- Multiply: 0.25 × 65 = 16.25
- Check: Work backwards: 16.25 ÷ 65 × 100 = 25%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 25/100 = part/65, so part = 25 × 65 ÷ 100 = 16.25. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =25%*65. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
