How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 98 ÷ 100 = 0.98
  2. Multiply: 0.98 × 66 = 64.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 64.68 ÷ 66 × 100 = 98%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 98/100 = part/66, so part = 98 × 66 ÷ 100 = 64.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =98%*66. 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

64.68 is the 98% share of 66. The remaining 2% is 1.32, and the two parts add back up to 66.

Discounts: 98% off an item priced $66 saves $64.68, so you pay $1.32.

Adding and taking away 98%

Increasing 66 by 98% gives 130.68 and decreasing it by 98% gives 1.32. These do not cancel out: raising 66 by 98% and then lowering the result by 98% ends at 2.6136, because the second 98% is taken of a bigger number.
