How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 66 ÷ 100 = 0.66
  2. Multiply: 0.66 × 20 = 13.2
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.2 ÷ 20 × 100 = 66%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/100 = part/20, so part = 66 × 20 ÷ 100 = 13.2. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =66%*20. 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

13.2 is the 66% share of 20. The remaining 34% is 6.8, and the two parts add back up to 20.

Discounts: 66% off an item priced $20 saves $13.2, so you pay $6.8.

Adding and taking away 66%

Increasing 20 by 66% gives 33.2 and decreasing it by 66% gives 6.8. These do not cancel out: raising 20 by 66% and then lowering the result by 66% ends at 11.288, because the second 66% is taken of a bigger number.
