How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 45 ÷ 100 = 0.45
  2. Multiply: 0.45 × 33 = 14.85
  3. Check: Work backwards: 14.85 ÷ 33 × 100 = 45%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 45/100 = part/33, so part = 45 × 33 ÷ 100 = 14.85. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =45%*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

14.85 is the 45% share of 33. The remaining 55% is 18.15, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 45% off an item priced $33 saves $14.85, so you pay $18.15.

Adding and taking away 45%

Increasing 33 by 45% gives 47.85 and decreasing it by 45% gives 18.15. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 45% and then lowering the result by 45% ends at 26.3175, because the second 45% is taken of a bigger number.
