How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 83 ÷ 100 = 0.83
  2. Multiply: 0.83 × 77 = 63.91
  3. Check: Work backwards: 63.91 ÷ 77 × 100 = 83%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 83/100 = part/77, so part = 83 × 77 ÷ 100 = 63.91. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =83%*77. 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

63.91 is the 83% share of 77. The remaining 17% is 13.09, and the two parts add back up to 77.

Discounts: 83% off an item priced $77 saves $63.91, so you pay $13.09.

Adding and taking away 83%

Increasing 77 by 83% gives 140.91 and decreasing it by 83% gives 13.09. These do not cancel out: raising 77 by 83% and then lowering the result by 83% ends at 23.9547, because the second 83% is taken of a bigger number.
