How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 18 ÷ 100 = 0.18
  2. Multiply: 0.18 × 62 = 11.16
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11.16 ÷ 62 × 100 = 18%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 18/100 = part/62, so part = 18 × 62 ÷ 100 = 11.16. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =18%*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

11.16 is the 18% share of 62. The remaining 82% is 50.84, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 18% off an item priced $62 saves $11.16, so you pay $50.84.

Adding and taking away 18%

Increasing 62 by 18% gives 73.16 and decreasing it by 18% gives 50.84. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 18% and then lowering the result by 18% ends at 59.9912, because the second 18% is taken of a bigger number.
