How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
- Multiply: 0.82 × 89 = 72.98
- Check: Work backwards: 72.98 ÷ 89 × 100 = 82%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/89, so part = 82 × 89 ÷ 100 = 72.98. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =82%*89. 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

Adding and taking away 82%
Increasing 89 by 82% gives 161.98 and decreasing it by 82% gives 16.02. These do not cancel out: raising 89 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 29.1564, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
