How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 45 ÷ 100 = 0.45
- Multiply: 0.45 × 65 = 29.25
- Check: Work backwards: 29.25 ÷ 65 × 100 = 45%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 45/100 = part/65, so part = 45 × 65 ÷ 100 = 29.25. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =45%*65. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
