<em>Additional comment</em>
Many calculators and all spreadsheets can work with percentages directly. If yours can't, or if you can't do this arithmetic mentally, you can use the equivalent decimal or fraction for 5%.

Then 5% × $640 = $640/20 = $64/2 = $32.
500 or 600 depending on the maths question
