How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 80 ÷ 100 = 0.8
  2. Multiply: 0.8 × 57 = 45.6
  3. Check: Work backwards: 45.6 ÷ 57 × 100 = 80%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 80/100 = part/57, so part = 80 × 57 ÷ 100 = 45.6. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =80%*57. 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

45.6 is the 80% share of 57. The remaining 20% is 11.4, and the two parts add back up to 57.

Discounts: 80% off an item priced $57 saves $45.6, so you pay $11.4.

Adding and taking away 80%

Increasing 57 by 80% gives 102.6 and decreasing it by 80% gives 11.4. These do not cancel out: raising 57 by 80% and then lowering the result by 80% ends at 20.52, because the second 80% is taken of a bigger number.
