How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 67 ÷ 100 = 0.67
  2. Multiply: 0.67 × 5 = 3.35
  3. Check: Work backwards: 3.35 ÷ 5 × 100 = 67%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 67/100 = part/5, so part = 67 × 5 ÷ 100 = 3.35. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =67%*5. 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

3.35 is the 67% share of 5. The remaining 33% is 1.65, and the two parts add back up to 5.

Discounts: 67% off an item priced $5 saves $3.35, so you pay $1.65.

Adding and taking away 67%

Increasing 5 by 67% gives 8.35 and decreasing it by 67% gives 1.65. These do not cancel out: raising 5 by 67% and then lowering the result by 67% ends at 2.7555, because the second 67% is taken of a bigger number.
