How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 83 ÷ 100 = 0.83
  2. Multiply: 0.83 × 25 = 20.75
  3. Check: Work backwards: 20.75 ÷ 25 × 100 = 83%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 83/100 = part/25, so part = 83 × 25 ÷ 100 = 20.75. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =83%*25. 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

20.75 is the 83% share of 25. The remaining 17% is 4.25, and the two parts add back up to 25.

Discounts: 83% off an item priced $25 saves $20.75, so you pay $4.25.

Adding and taking away 83%

Increasing 25 by 83% gives 45.75 and decreasing it by 83% gives 4.25. These do not cancel out: raising 25 by 83% and then lowering the result by 83% ends at 7.7775, because the second 83% is taken of a bigger number.
