How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 29 ÷ 100 = 0.29
  2. Multiply: 0.29 × 64 = 18.56
  3. Check: Work backwards: 18.56 ÷ 64 × 100 = 29%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/100 = part/64, so part = 29 × 64 ÷ 100 = 18.56. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29%*64. 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

18.56 is the 29% share of 64. The remaining 71% is 45.44, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 29% off an item priced $64 saves $18.56, so you pay $45.44.

Adding and taking away 29%

Increasing 64 by 29% gives 82.56 and decreasing it by 29% gives 45.44. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 29% and then lowering the result by 29% ends at 58.6176, because the second 29% is taken of a bigger number.
