How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
  2. Multiply: 0.84 × 33 = 27.72
  3. Check: Work backwards: 27.72 ÷ 33 × 100 = 84%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/33, so part = 84 × 33 ÷ 100 = 27.72. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =84%*33. 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

27.72 is the 84% share of 33. The remaining 16% is 5.28, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 84% off an item priced $33 saves $27.72, so you pay $5.28.

Adding and taking away 84%

Increasing 33 by 84% gives 60.72 and decreasing it by 84% gives 5.28. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 9.7152, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
