How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
- Multiply: 0.82 × 18 = 14.76
- Check: Work backwards: 14.76 ÷ 18 × 100 = 82%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/18, so part = 82 × 18 ÷ 100 = 14.76. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =82%*18. 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
14.76 is the 82% share of 18. The remaining 18% is 3.24, and the two parts add back up to 18.

Adding and taking away 82%
Increasing 18 by 82% gives 32.76 and decreasing it by 82% gives 3.24. These do not cancel out: raising 18 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 5.8968, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
