How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 36 ÷ 100 = 0.36
  2. Multiply: 0.36 × 64 = 23.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 23.04 ÷ 64 × 100 = 36%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 36/100 = part/64, so part = 36 × 64 ÷ 100 = 23.04. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =36%*64. 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

23.04 is the 36% share of 64. The remaining 64% is 40.96, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 36% off an item priced $64 saves $23.04, so you pay $40.96.

Adding and taking away 36%

Increasing 64 by 36% gives 87.04 and decreasing it by 36% gives 40.96. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 36% and then lowering the result by 36% ends at 55.7056, because the second 36% is taken of a bigger number.
