How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
- Multiply: 0.84 × 83 = 69.72
- Check: Work backwards: 69.72 ÷ 83 × 100 = 84%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/83, so part = 84 × 83 ÷ 100 = 69.72. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =84%*83. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
