How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 53 ÷ 100 = 0.53
- Multiply: 0.53 × 71 = 37.63
- Check: Work backwards: 37.63 ÷ 71 × 100 = 53%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 53/100 = part/71, so part = 53 × 71 ÷ 100 = 37.63. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =53%*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.
What the result means

Adding and taking away 53%
Increasing 71 by 53% gives 108.63 and decreasing it by 53% gives 33.37. These do not cancel out: raising 71 by 53% and then lowering the result by 53% ends at 51.0561, because the second 53% is taken of a bigger number.
