How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 97 ÷ 100 = 0.97
- Multiply: 0.97 × 82 = 79.54
- Check: Work backwards: 79.54 ÷ 82 × 100 = 97%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 97/100 = part/82, so part = 97 × 82 ÷ 100 = 79.54. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =97%*82. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 97%
Increasing 82 by 97% gives 161.54 and decreasing it by 97% gives 2.46. These do not cancel out: raising 82 by 97% and then lowering the result by 97% ends at 4.8462, because the second 97% is taken of a bigger number.
