How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 67 ÷ 100 = 0.67
  2. Multiply: 0.67 × 50 = 33.5
  3. Check: Work backwards: 33.5 ÷ 50 × 100 = 67%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 67/100 = part/50, so part = 67 × 50 ÷ 100 = 33.5. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =67%*50. 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

33.5 is the 67% share of 50. The remaining 33% is 16.5, and the two parts add back up to 50.

Discounts: 67% off an item priced $50 saves $33.5, so you pay $16.5.

Adding and taking away 67%

Increasing 50 by 67% gives 83.5 and decreasing it by 67% gives 16.5. These do not cancel out: raising 50 by 67% and then lowering the result by 67% ends at 27.555, because the second 67% is taken of a bigger number.
