How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 66 ÷ 100 = 0.66
  2. Multiply: 0.66 × 30 = 19.8
  3. Check: Work backwards: 19.8 ÷ 30 × 100 = 66%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/100 = part/30, so part = 66 × 30 ÷ 100 = 19.8. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =66%*30. 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

19.8 is the 66% share of 30. The remaining 34% is 10.2, and the two parts add back up to 30.

Discounts: 66% off an item priced $30 saves $19.8, so you pay $10.2.

Adding and taking away 66%

Increasing 30 by 66% gives 49.8 and decreasing it by 66% gives 10.2. These do not cancel out: raising 30 by 66% and then lowering the result by 66% ends at 16.932, because the second 66% is taken of a bigger number.
