How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 97 ÷ 100 = 0.97
- Multiply: 0.97 × 80 = 77.6
- Check: Work backwards: 77.6 ÷ 80 × 100 = 97%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 97/100 = part/80, so part = 97 × 80 ÷ 100 = 77.6. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =97%*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
77.6 is the 97% share of 80. The remaining 3% is 2.4, and the two parts add back up to 80.
Discounts: 97% off an item priced $80 saves $77.6, so you pay $2.4.
Adding and taking away 97%
Increasing 80 by 97% gives 157.6 and decreasing it by 97% gives 2.4. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 97% and then lowering the result by 97% ends at 4.728, because the second 97% is taken of a bigger number.
