How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 32 ÷ 100 = 0.32
  2. Multiply: 0.32 × 25 = 8
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8 ÷ 25 × 100 = 32%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 32/100 = part/25, so part = 32 × 25 ÷ 100 = 8. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =32%*25. 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

8 is the 32% share of 25. The remaining 68% is 17, and the two parts add back up to 25.

Discounts: 32% off an item priced $25 saves $8, so you pay $17.

Adding and taking away 32%

Increasing 25 by 32% gives 33 and decreasing it by 32% gives 17. These do not cancel out: raising 25 by 32% and then lowering the result by 32% ends at 22.44, because the second 32% is taken of a bigger number.
