How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 77 ÷ 100 = 0.77
  2. Multiply: 0.77 × 83 = 63.91
  3. Check: Work backwards: 63.91 ÷ 83 × 100 = 77%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 77/100 = part/83, so part = 77 × 83 ÷ 100 = 63.91. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =77%*83. 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

63.91 is the 77% share of 83. The remaining 23% is 19.09, and the two parts add back up to 83.

Discounts: 77% off an item priced $83 saves $63.91, so you pay $19.09.

Adding and taking away 77%

Increasing 83 by 77% gives 146.91 and decreasing it by 77% gives 19.09. These do not cancel out: raising 83 by 77% and then lowering the result by 77% ends at 33.7893, because the second 77% is taken of a bigger number.
