How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 33 ÷ 100 = 0.33
  2. Multiply: 0.33 × 25 = 8.25
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.25 ÷ 25 × 100 = 33%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 33/100 = part/25, so part = 33 × 25 ÷ 100 = 8.25. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =33%*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

8.25 is the 33% share of 25. The remaining 67% is 16.75, and the two parts add back up to 25.

Discounts: 33% off an item priced $25 saves $8.25, so you pay $16.75.

Adding and taking away 33%

Increasing 25 by 33% gives 33.25 and decreasing it by 33% gives 16.75. These do not cancel out: raising 25 by 33% and then lowering the result by 33% ends at 22.2775, because the second 33% is taken of a bigger number.
