How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 65 ÷ 100 = 0.65
  2. Multiply: 0.65 × 80 = 52
  3. Check: Work backwards: 52 ÷ 80 × 100 = 65%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 65/100 = part/80, so part = 65 × 80 ÷ 100 = 52. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =65%*80. 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

52 is the 65% share of 80. The remaining 35% is 28, and the two parts add back up to 80.

Discounts: 65% off an item priced $80 saves $52, so you pay $28.

Adding and taking away 65%

Increasing 80 by 65% gives 132 and decreasing it by 65% gives 28. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 65% and then lowering the result by 65% ends at 46.2, because the second 65% is taken of a bigger number.
