How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 56 ÷ 100 = 0.56
- Multiply: 0.56 × 63 = 35.28
- Check: Work backwards: 35.28 ÷ 63 × 100 = 56%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 56/100 = part/63, so part = 56 × 63 ÷ 100 = 35.28. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =56%*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.
