How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 47 ÷ 100 = 0.47
- Multiply: 0.47 × 82 = 38.54
- Check: Work backwards: 38.54 ÷ 82 × 100 = 47%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 47/100 = part/82, so part = 47 × 82 ÷ 100 = 38.54. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =47%*82. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
