How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 80 ÷ 100 = 0.8
- Multiply: 0.8 × 99 = 79.2
- Check: Work backwards: 79.2 ÷ 99 × 100 = 80%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 80/100 = part/99, so part = 80 × 99 ÷ 100 = 79.2. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =80%*99. 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
79.2 is the 80% share of 99. The remaining 20% is 19.8, and the two parts add back up to 99.
Discounts: 80% off an item priced $99 saves $79.2, so you pay $19.8.
Adding and taking away 80%
Increasing 99 by 80% gives 178.2 and decreasing it by 80% gives 19.8. These do not cancel out: raising 99 by 80% and then lowering the result by 80% ends at 35.64, because the second 80% is taken of a bigger number.
