How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 96 ÷ 100 = 0.96
  2. Multiply: 0.96 × 33 = 31.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.68 ÷ 33 × 100 = 96%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 96/100 = part/33, so part = 96 × 33 ÷ 100 = 31.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =96%*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

31.68 is the 96% share of 33. The remaining 4% is 1.32, and the two parts add back up to 33.

Discounts: 96% off an item priced $33 saves $31.68, so you pay $1.32.

Adding and taking away 96%

Increasing 33 by 96% gives 64.68 and decreasing it by 96% gives 1.32. These do not cancel out: raising 33 by 96% and then lowering the result by 96% ends at 2.5872, because the second 96% is taken of a bigger number.
