How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 77 ÷ 100 = 0.77
- Multiply: 0.77 × 1 = 0.77
- Check: Work backwards: 0.77 ÷ 1 × 100 = 77%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 77/100 = part/1, so part = 77 × 1 ÷ 100 = 0.77. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =77%*1. 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
0.77 is the 77% share of 1. The remaining 23% is 0.23, and the two parts add back up to 1.
Discounts: 77% off an item priced $1 saves $0.77, so you pay $0.23.
Adding and taking away 77%
Increasing 1 by 77% gives 1.77 and decreasing it by 77% gives 0.23. These do not cancel out: raising 1 by 77% and then lowering the result by 77% ends at 0.4071, because the second 77% is taken of a bigger number.
