How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 66 ÷ 100 = 0.66
- Multiply: 0.66 × 65 = 42.9
- Check: Work backwards: 42.9 ÷ 65 × 100 = 66%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/100 = part/65, so part = 66 × 65 ÷ 100 = 42.9. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =66%*65. 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
42.9 is the 66% share of 65. The remaining 34% is 22.1, and the two parts add back up to 65.

Adding and taking away 66%
Increasing 65 by 66% gives 107.9 and decreasing it by 66% gives 22.1. These do not cancel out: raising 65 by 66% and then lowering the result by 66% ends at 36.686, because the second 66% is taken of a bigger number.
