How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 68 ÷ 100 = 0.68
- Multiply: 0.68 × 80 = 54.4
- Check: Work backwards: 54.4 ÷ 80 × 100 = 68%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 68/100 = part/80, so part = 68 × 80 ÷ 100 = 54.4. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =68%*80. 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
54.4 is the 68% share of 80. The remaining 32% is 25.6, and the two parts add back up to 80.

Adding and taking away 68%
Increasing 80 by 68% gives 134.4 and decreasing it by 68% gives 25.6. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 68% and then lowering the result by 68% ends at 43.008, because the second 68% is taken of a bigger number.
