How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 32 ÷ 100 = 0.32
  2. Multiply: 0.32 × 64 = 20.48
  3. Check: Work backwards: 20.48 ÷ 64 × 100 = 32%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 32/100 = part/64, so part = 32 × 64 ÷ 100 = 20.48. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =32%*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

20.48 is the 32% share of 64. The remaining 68% is 43.52, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 32% off an item priced $64 saves $20.48, so you pay $43.52.

Adding and taking away 32%

Increasing 64 by 32% gives 84.48 and decreasing it by 32% gives 43.52. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 32% and then lowering the result by 32% ends at 57.4464, because the second 32% is taken of a bigger number.
