83 minus 1 percent

This is where you will learn how to calculate eighty-three minus one percent (83 minus 1 percent). We will first explain and illustrate with pictures so you get a complete understanding of what 83 minus 1 percent means, and then we will give you the formula at the very end.

We start by showing you the image below of a dark blue box that contains 83 of something.

83
(100%)

1 percent means 1 per hundred, so for each hundred in 83, you want to subtract 1. Thus, you divide 83 by 100 and then multiply the quotient by 1 to find out how much to subtract. Here is the math to calculate how much we should subtract:

(83 ÷ 100) × 1
= 0.83

We made a pink square that we put on top of the image shown above to illustrate how much 1 percent is of the total 83:

The dark blue not covered up by the pink is 83 minus 1 percent. Thus, we simply subtract the 0.83 from 83 to get the answer:

83 - 0.83
= 82.17

The explanation and illustrations above are the educational way of calculating 83 minus 1 percent. You can also, of course, use formulas to calculate 83 minus 1%.

Below we show you two formulas that you can use to calculate 83 minus 1 percent and similar problems in the future.

Formula 1
Number - ((Number × Percent/100))
83 - ((83 × 1/100))
83 - 0.83
= 82.17

Formula 2
Number × (1 - (Percent/100))
83 × (1 - (1/100))
83 × 0.99
= 82.17
