How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 48 ÷ 100 = 0.48
- Multiply: 0.48 × 83 = 39.84
- Check: Work backwards: 39.84 ÷ 83 × 100 = 48%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 48/100 = part/83, so part = 48 × 83 ÷ 100 = 39.84. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =48%*83. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
