How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 67 ÷ 100 = 0.67
  2. Multiply: 0.67 × 40 = 26.8
  3. Check: Work backwards: 26.8 ÷ 40 × 100 = 67%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 67/100 = part/40, so part = 67 × 40 ÷ 100 = 26.8. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =67%*40. 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

26.8 is the 67% share of 40. The remaining 33% is 13.2, and the two parts add back up to 40.

Discounts: 67% off an item priced $40 saves $26.8, so you pay $13.2.

Adding and taking away 67%

Increasing 40 by 67% gives 66.8 and decreasing it by 67% gives 13.2. These do not cancel out: raising 40 by 67% and then lowering the result by 67% ends at 22.044, because the second 67% is taken of a bigger number.
