How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 64 ÷ 100 = 0.64
  2. Multiply: 0.64 × 88 = 56.32
  3. Check: Work backwards: 56.32 ÷ 88 × 100 = 64%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/100 = part/88, so part = 64 × 88 ÷ 100 = 56.32. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =64%*88. 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

56.32 is the 64% share of 88. The remaining 36% is 31.68, and the two parts add back up to 88.

Discounts: 64% off an item priced $88 saves $56.32, so you pay $31.68.

Adding and taking away 64%

Increasing 88 by 64% gives 144.32 and decreasing it by 64% gives 31.68. These do not cancel out: raising 88 by 64% and then lowering the result by 64% ends at 51.9552, because the second 64% is taken of a bigger number.
