How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 36 ÷ 100 = 0.36
- Multiply: 0.36 × 58 = 20.88
- Check: Work backwards: 20.88 ÷ 58 × 100 = 36%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 36/100 = part/58, so part = 36 × 58 ÷ 100 = 20.88. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =36%*58. 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

Adding and taking away 36%
Increasing 58 by 36% gives 78.88 and decreasing it by 36% gives 37.12. These do not cancel out: raising 58 by 36% and then lowering the result by 36% ends at 50.4832, because the second 36% is taken of a bigger number.
