How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
  2. Multiply: 0.82 × 9 = 7.38
  3. Check: Work backwards: 7.38 ÷ 9 × 100 = 82%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/9, so part = 82 × 9 ÷ 100 = 7.38. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =82%*9. 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

7.38 is the 82% share of 9. The remaining 18% is 1.62, and the two parts add back up to 9.

Discounts: 82% off an item priced $9 saves $7.38, so you pay $1.62.

Adding and taking away 82%

Increasing 9 by 82% gives 16.38 and decreasing it by 82% gives 1.62. These do not cancel out: raising 9 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 2.9484, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
