How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 40 ÷ 100 = 0.4
  2. Multiply: 0.4 × 33 = 13.2
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.2 ÷ 33 × 100 = 40%.

In a spreadsheet: =40%*33. 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

13.2 is the 40% share of 33. The remaining 60% is 19.8, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 40% off an item priced $33 saves $13.2, so you pay $19.8.

Adding and taking away 40%

Increasing 33 by 40% gives 46.2 and decreasing it by 40% gives 19.8. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 40% and then lowering the result by 40% ends at 27.72, because the second 40% is taken of a bigger number.
