How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 36 ÷ 100 = 0.36
  2. Multiply: 0.36 × 63 = 22.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 22.68 ÷ 63 × 100 = 36%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 36/100 = part/63, so part = 36 × 63 ÷ 100 = 22.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =36%*63. 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

22.68 is the 36% share of 63. The remaining 64% is 40.32, and the two parts add back up to 63.

Discounts: 36% off an item priced $63 saves $22.68, so you pay $40.32.

Adding and taking away 36%

Increasing 63 by 36% gives 85.68 and decreasing it by 36% gives 40.32. These do not cancel out: raising 63 by 36% and then lowering the result by 36% ends at 54.8352, because the second 36% is taken of a bigger number.
