How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 38 ÷ 100 = 0.38
- Multiply: 0.38 × 80 = 30.4
- Check: Work backwards: 30.4 ÷ 80 × 100 = 38%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 38/100 = part/80, so part = 38 × 80 ÷ 100 = 30.4. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =38%*80. 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
30.4 is the 38% share of 80. The remaining 62% is 49.6, and the two parts add back up to 80.
Discounts: 38% off an item priced $80 saves $30.4, so you pay $49.6.
Adding and taking away 38%
Increasing 80 by 38% gives 110.4 and decreasing it by 38% gives 49.6. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 38% and then lowering the result by 38% ends at 68.448, because the second 38% is taken of a bigger number.
