How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 53 ÷ 100 = 0.53
- Multiply: 0.53 × 66 = 34.98
- Check: Work backwards: 34.98 ÷ 66 × 100 = 53%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 53/100 = part/66, so part = 53 × 66 ÷ 100 = 34.98. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =53%*66. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 53%
Increasing 66 by 53% gives 100.98 and decreasing it by 53% gives 31.02. These do not cancel out: raising 66 by 53% and then lowering the result by 53% ends at 47.4606, because the second 53% is taken of a bigger number.
