How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 33 ÷ 100 = 0.33
  2. Multiply: 0.33 × 63 = 20.79
  3. Check: Work backwards: 20.79 ÷ 63 × 100 = 33%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 33/100 = part/63, so part = 33 × 63 ÷ 100 = 20.79. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =33%*63. 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

20.79 is the 33% share of 63. The remaining 67% is 42.21, and the two parts add back up to 63.

Discounts: 33% off an item priced $63 saves $20.79, so you pay $42.21.

Adding and taking away 33%

Increasing 63 by 33% gives 83.79 and decreasing it by 33% gives 42.21. These do not cancel out: raising 63 by 33% and then lowering the result by 33% ends at 56.1393, because the second 33% is taken of a bigger number.
