How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 31 ÷ 100 = 0.31
- Multiply: 0.31 × 80 = 24.8
- Check: Work backwards: 24.8 ÷ 80 × 100 = 31%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/100 = part/80, so part = 31 × 80 ÷ 100 = 24.8. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =31%*80. 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
24.8 is the 31% share of 80. The remaining 69% is 55.2, and the two parts add back up to 80.
Discounts: 31% off an item priced $80 saves $24.8, so you pay $55.2.
Adding and taking away 31%
Increasing 80 by 31% gives 104.8 and decreasing it by 31% gives 55.2. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 31% and then lowering the result by 31% ends at 72.312, because the second 31% is taken of a bigger number.
