How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 37 ÷ 100 = 0.37
  2. Multiply: 0.37 × 62 = 22.94
  3. Check: Work backwards: 22.94 ÷ 62 × 100 = 37%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/100 = part/62, so part = 37 × 62 ÷ 100 = 22.94. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =37%*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

22.94 is the 37% share of 62. The remaining 63% is 39.06, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 37% off an item priced $62 saves $22.94, so you pay $39.06.

Adding and taking away 37%

Increasing 62 by 37% gives 84.94 and decreasing it by 37% gives 39.06. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 37% and then lowering the result by 37% ends at 53.5122, because the second 37% is taken of a bigger number.
