How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
- Multiply: 0.82 × 96 = 78.72
- Check: Work backwards: 78.72 ÷ 96 × 100 = 82%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/96, so part = 82 × 96 ÷ 100 = 78.72. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =82%*96. 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 96 by 82% gives 174.72 and decreasing it by 82% gives 17.28. These do not cancel out: raising 96 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 31.4496, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
