How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 60 ÷ 100 = 0.6
- Multiply: 0.6 × 82 = 49.2
- Check: Work backwards: 49.2 ÷ 82 × 100 = 60%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 60/100 = part/82, so part = 60 × 82 ÷ 100 = 49.2. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =60%*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.
What the result means
49.2 is the 60% share of 82. The remaining 40% is 32.8, and the two parts add back up to 82.

Adding and taking away 60%
Increasing 82 by 60% gives 131.2 and decreasing it by 60% gives 32.8. These do not cancel out: raising 82 by 60% and then lowering the result by 60% ends at 52.48, because the second 60% is taken of a bigger number.
