How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
  2. Multiply: 0.71 × 33 = 23.43
  3. Check: Work backwards: 23.43 ÷ 33 × 100 = 71%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/33, so part = 71 × 33 ÷ 100 = 23.43. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =71%*33. 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

23.43 is the 71% share of 33. The remaining 29% is 9.57, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 71% off an item priced $33 saves $23.43, so you pay $9.57.

Adding and taking away 71%

Increasing 33 by 71% gives 56.43 and decreasing it by 71% gives 9.57. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 16.3647, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
