How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 31 ÷ 100 = 0.31
  2. Multiply: 0.31 × 64 = 19.84
  3. Check: Work backwards: 19.84 ÷ 64 × 100 = 31%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/100 = part/64, so part = 31 × 64 ÷ 100 = 19.84. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =31%*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

19.84 is the 31% share of 64. The remaining 69% is 44.16, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 31% off an item priced $64 saves $19.84, so you pay $44.16.

Adding and taking away 31%

Increasing 64 by 31% gives 83.84 and decreasing it by 31% gives 44.16. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 31% and then lowering the result by 31% ends at 57.8496, because the second 31% is taken of a bigger number.
