How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 49 ÷ 100 = 0.49
  2. Multiply: 0.49 × 62 = 30.38
  3. Check: Work backwards: 30.38 ÷ 62 × 100 = 49%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/100 = part/62, so part = 49 × 62 ÷ 100 = 30.38. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =49%*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

30.38 is the 49% share of 62. The remaining 51% is 31.62, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 49% off an item priced $62 saves $30.38, so you pay $31.62.

Adding and taking away 49%

Increasing 62 by 49% gives 92.38 and decreasing it by 49% gives 31.62. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 49% and then lowering the result by 49% ends at 47.1138, because the second 49% is taken of a bigger number.
