How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 31 ÷ 100 = 0.31
  2. Multiply: 0.31 × 66 = 20.46
  3. Check: Work backwards: 20.46 ÷ 66 × 100 = 31%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/100 = part/66, so part = 31 × 66 ÷ 100 = 20.46. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =31%*66. 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

20.46 is the 31% share of 66. The remaining 69% is 45.54, and the two parts add back up to 66.

Discounts: 31% off an item priced $66 saves $20.46, so you pay $45.54.

Adding and taking away 31%

Increasing 66 by 31% gives 86.46 and decreasing it by 31% gives 45.54. These do not cancel out: raising 66 by 31% and then lowering the result by 31% ends at 59.6574, because the second 31% is taken of a bigger number.
