How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 83 ÷ 100 = 0.83
  2. Multiply: 0.83 × 80 = 66.4
  3. Check: Work backwards: 66.4 ÷ 80 × 100 = 83%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 83/100 = part/80, so part = 83 × 80 ÷ 100 = 66.4. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =83%*80. 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

66.4 is the 83% share of 80. The remaining 17% is 13.6, and the two parts add back up to 80.

Discounts: 83% off an item priced $80 saves $66.4, so you pay $13.6.

Adding and taking away 83%

Increasing 80 by 83% gives 146.4 and decreasing it by 83% gives 13.6. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 83% and then lowering the result by 83% ends at 24.888, because the second 83% is taken of a bigger number.
