How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 64 ÷ 100 = 0.64
  2. Multiply: 0.64 × 33 = 21.12
  3. Check: Work backwards: 21.12 ÷ 33 × 100 = 64%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/100 = part/33, so part = 64 × 33 ÷ 100 = 21.12. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =64%*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

21.12 is the 64% share of 33. The remaining 36% is 11.88, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 64% off an item priced $33 saves $21.12, so you pay $11.88.

Adding and taking away 64%

Increasing 33 by 64% gives 54.12 and decreasing it by 64% gives 11.88. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 64% and then lowering the result by 64% ends at 19.4832, because the second 64% is taken of a bigger number.
