How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 11 ÷ 100 = 0.11
  2. Multiply: 0.11 × 62 = 6.82
  3. Check: Work backwards: 6.82 ÷ 62 × 100 = 11%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/100 = part/62, so part = 11 × 62 ÷ 100 = 6.82. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =11%*62. 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

6.82 is the 11% share of 62. The remaining 89% is 55.18, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 11% off an item priced $62 saves $6.82, so you pay $55.18.

Adding and taking away 11%

Increasing 62 by 11% gives 68.82 and decreasing it by 11% gives 55.18. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 11% and then lowering the result by 11% ends at 61.2498, because the second 11% is taken of a bigger number.
