How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 80 ÷ 100 = 0.8
  2. Multiply: 0.8 × 83 = 66.4
  3. Check: Work backwards: 66.4 ÷ 83 × 100 = 80%.

In a spreadsheet: =80%*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

Adding and taking away 80%

Increasing 83 by 80% gives 149.4 and decreasing it by 80% gives 16.6. These do not cancel out: raising 83 by 80% and then lowering the result by 80% ends at 29.88, because the second 80% is taken of a bigger number.
