How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 33 ÷ 100 = 0.33
  2. Multiply: 0.33 × 96 = 31.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.68 ÷ 96 × 100 = 33%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 33/100 = part/96, so part = 33 × 96 ÷ 100 = 31.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =33%*96. 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

31.68 is the 33% share of 96. The remaining 67% is 64.32, and the two parts add back up to 96.

Discounts: 33% off an item priced $96 saves $31.68, so you pay $64.32.

Adding and taking away 33%

Increasing 96 by 33% gives 127.68 and decreasing it by 33% gives 64.32. These do not cancel out: raising 96 by 33% and then lowering the result by 33% ends at 85.5456, because the second 33% is taken of a bigger number.
