How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 58 ÷ 100 = 0.58
  2. Multiply: 0.58 × 80 = 46.4
  3. Check: Work backwards: 46.4 ÷ 80 × 100 = 58%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 58/100 = part/80, so part = 58 × 80 ÷ 100 = 46.4. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =58%*80. 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

46.4 is the 58% share of 80. The remaining 42% is 33.6, and the two parts add back up to 80.

Discounts: 58% off an item priced $80 saves $46.4, so you pay $33.6.

Adding and taking away 58%

Increasing 80 by 58% gives 126.4 and decreasing it by 58% gives 33.6. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 58% and then lowering the result by 58% ends at 53.088, because the second 58% is taken of a bigger number.
