How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 83 ÷ 100 = 0.83
  2. Multiply: 0.83 × 64 = 53.12
  3. Check: Work backwards: 53.12 ÷ 64 × 100 = 83%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 83/100 = part/64, so part = 83 × 64 ÷ 100 = 53.12. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =83%*64. 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

53.12 is the 83% share of 64. The remaining 17% is 10.88, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 83% off an item priced $64 saves $53.12, so you pay $10.88.

Adding and taking away 83%

Increasing 64 by 83% gives 117.12 and decreasing it by 83% gives 10.88. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 83% and then lowering the result by 83% ends at 19.9104, because the second 83% is taken of a bigger number.
