How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 33 ÷ 100 = 0.33
- Multiply: 0.33 × 54 = 17.82
- Check: Work backwards: 17.82 ÷ 54 × 100 = 33%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 33/100 = part/54, so part = 33 × 54 ÷ 100 = 17.82. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =33%*54. 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 54 by 33% gives 71.82 and decreasing it by 33% gives 36.18. These do not cancel out: raising 54 by 33% and then lowering the result by 33% ends at 48.1194, because the second 33% is taken of a bigger number.
