How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 66 ÷ 100 = 0.66
- Multiply: 0.66 × 83 = 54.78
- Check: Work backwards: 54.78 ÷ 83 × 100 = 66%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/100 = part/83, so part = 66 × 83 ÷ 100 = 54.78. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =66%*83. 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 66%
Increasing 83 by 66% gives 137.78 and decreasing it by 66% gives 28.22. These do not cancel out: raising 83 by 66% and then lowering the result by 66% ends at 46.8452, because the second 66% is taken of a bigger number.
