How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 33 ÷ 100 = 0.33
- Multiply: 0.33 × 26 = 8.58
- Check: Work backwards: 8.58 ÷ 26 × 100 = 33%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 33/100 = part/26, so part = 33 × 26 ÷ 100 = 8.58. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =33%*26. 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

Adding and taking away 33%
Increasing 26 by 33% gives 34.58 and decreasing it by 33% gives 17.42. These do not cancel out: raising 26 by 33% and then lowering the result by 33% ends at 23.1686, because the second 33% is taken of a bigger number.
