How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
- Multiply: 0.99 × 83 = 82.17
- Check: Work backwards: 82.17 ÷ 83 × 100 = 99%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/83, so part = 99 × 83 ÷ 100 = 82.17. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =99%*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.
What the result means
82.17 is the 99% share of 83. The remaining 1% is 0.83, and the two parts add back up to 83.

Adding and taking away 99%
Increasing 83 by 99% gives 165.17 and decreasing it by 99% gives 0.83. These do not cancel out: raising 83 by 99% and then lowering the result by 99% ends at 1.6517, because the second 99% is taken of a bigger number.
