How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 65 ÷ 100 = 0.65
  2. Multiply: 0.65 × 36 = 23.4
  3. Check: Work backwards: 23.4 ÷ 36 × 100 = 65%.

In a spreadsheet: =65%*36. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 65%

Increasing 36 by 65% gives 59.4 and decreasing it by 65% gives 12.6. These do not cancel out: raising 36 by 65% and then lowering the result by 65% ends at 20.79, because the second 65% is taken of a bigger number.
