How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
- Multiply: 0.82 × 30 = 24.6
- Check: Work backwards: 24.6 ÷ 30 × 100 = 82%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/30, so part = 82 × 30 ÷ 100 = 24.6. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =82%*30. 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
24.6 is the 82% share of 30. The remaining 18% is 5.4, and the two parts add back up to 30.
Discounts: 82% off an item priced $30 saves $24.6, so you pay $5.4.
Adding and taking away 82%
Increasing 30 by 82% gives 54.6 and decreasing it by 82% gives 5.4. These do not cancel out: raising 30 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 9.828, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
