How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 64 ÷ 100 = 0.64
  2. Multiply: 0.64 × 7 = 4.48
  3. Check: Work backwards: 4.48 ÷ 7 × 100 = 64%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/100 = part/7, so part = 64 × 7 ÷ 100 = 4.48. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =64%*7. 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

4.48 is the 64% share of 7. The remaining 36% is 2.52, and the two parts add back up to 7.

Discounts: 64% off an item priced $7 saves $4.48, so you pay $2.52.

Adding and taking away 64%

Increasing 7 by 64% gives 11.48 and decreasing it by 64% gives 2.52. These do not cancel out: raising 7 by 64% and then lowering the result by 64% ends at 4.1328, because the second 64% is taken of a bigger number.
