How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 36 ÷ 100 = 0.36
  2. Multiply: 0.36 × 82 = 29.52
  3. Check: Work backwards: 29.52 ÷ 82 × 100 = 36%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 36/100 = part/82, so part = 36 × 82 ÷ 100 = 29.52. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =36%*82. 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

29.52 is the 36% share of 82. The remaining 64% is 52.48, and the two parts add back up to 82.

Discounts: 36% off an item priced $82 saves $29.52, so you pay $52.48.

Adding and taking away 36%

Increasing 82 by 36% gives 111.52 and decreasing it by 36% gives 52.48. These do not cancel out: raising 82 by 36% and then lowering the result by 36% ends at 71.3728, because the second 36% is taken of a bigger number.
