How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 67 ÷ 100 = 0.67
  2. Multiply: 0.67 × 12 = 8.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 8.04 ÷ 12 × 100 = 67%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 67/100 = part/12, so part = 67 × 12 ÷ 100 = 8.04. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =67%*12. 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

8.04 is the 67% share of 12. The remaining 33% is 3.96, and the two parts add back up to 12.

Discounts: 67% off an item priced $12 saves $8.04, so you pay $3.96.

Adding and taking away 67%

Increasing 12 by 67% gives 20.04 and decreasing it by 67% gives 3.96. These do not cancel out: raising 12 by 67% and then lowering the result by 67% ends at 6.6132, because the second 67% is taken of a bigger number.
