How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
- Multiply: 0.82 × 60 = 49.2
- Check: Work backwards: 49.2 ÷ 60 × 100 = 82%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/60, so part = 82 × 60 ÷ 100 = 49.2. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =82%*60. 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
49.2 is the 82% share of 60. The remaining 18% is 10.8, and the two parts add back up to 60.
Discounts: 82% off an item priced $60 saves $49.2, so you pay $10.8.
Adding and taking away 82%
Increasing 60 by 82% gives 109.2 and decreasing it by 82% gives 10.8. These do not cancel out: raising 60 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 19.656, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
