How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
  2. Multiply: 0.82 × 66 = 54.12
  3. Check: Work backwards: 54.12 ÷ 66 × 100 = 82%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/66, so part = 82 × 66 ÷ 100 = 54.12. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =82%*66. 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

54.12 is the 82% share of 66. The remaining 18% is 11.88, and the two parts add back up to 66.

Discounts: 82% off an item priced $66 saves $54.12, so you pay $11.88.

Adding and taking away 82%

Increasing 66 by 82% gives 120.12 and decreasing it by 82% gives 11.88. These do not cancel out: raising 66 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 21.6216, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
