How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 64 ÷ 100 = 0.64
- Multiply: 0.64 × 6 = 3.84
- Check: Work backwards: 3.84 ÷ 6 × 100 = 64%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/100 = part/6, so part = 64 × 6 ÷ 100 = 3.84. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =64%*6. 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
3.84 is the 64% share of 6. The remaining 36% is 2.16, and the two parts add back up to 6.
Discounts: 64% off an item priced $6 saves $3.84, so you pay $2.16.
Adding and taking away 64%
Increasing 6 by 64% gives 9.84 and decreasing it by 64% gives 2.16. These do not cancel out: raising 6 by 64% and then lowering the result by 64% ends at 3.5424, because the second 64% is taken of a bigger number.
