How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 52 ÷ 100 = 0.52
  2. Multiply: 0.52 × 33 = 17.16
  3. Check: Work backwards: 17.16 ÷ 33 × 100 = 52%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 52/100 = part/33, so part = 52 × 33 ÷ 100 = 17.16. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =52%*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

17.16 is the 52% share of 33. The remaining 48% is 15.84, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 52% off an item priced $33 saves $17.16, so you pay $15.84.

Adding and taking away 52%

Increasing 33 by 52% gives 50.16 and decreasing it by 52% gives 15.84. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 52% and then lowering the result by 52% ends at 24.0768, because the second 52% is taken of a bigger number.
