How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 47 ÷ 100 = 0.47
- Multiply: 0.47 × 71 = 33.37
- Check: Work backwards: 33.37 ÷ 71 × 100 = 47%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 47/100 = part/71, so part = 47 × 71 ÷ 100 = 33.37. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =47%*71. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
