How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 24 ÷ 100 = 0.24
- Multiply: 0.24 × 62 = 14.88
- Check: Work backwards: 14.88 ÷ 62 × 100 = 24%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/100 = part/62, so part = 24 × 62 ÷ 100 = 14.88. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =24%*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.
