How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 46 ÷ 100 = 0.46
  2. Multiply: 0.46 × 64 = 29.44
  3. Check: Work backwards: 29.44 ÷ 64 × 100 = 46%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 46/100 = part/64, so part = 46 × 64 ÷ 100 = 29.44. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =46%*64. 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

29.44 is the 46% share of 64. The remaining 54% is 34.56, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 46% off an item priced $64 saves $29.44, so you pay $34.56.

Adding and taking away 46%

Increasing 64 by 46% gives 93.44 and decreasing it by 46% gives 34.56. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 46% and then lowering the result by 46% ends at 50.4576, because the second 46% is taken of a bigger number.
