How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 57 ÷ 100 = 0.57
- Multiply: 0.57 × 29 = 16.53
- Check: Work backwards: 16.53 ÷ 29 × 100 = 57%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/100 = part/29, so part = 57 × 29 ÷ 100 = 16.53. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =57%*29. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 57%
Increasing 29 by 57% gives 45.53 and decreasing it by 57% gives 12.47. These do not cancel out: raising 29 by 57% and then lowering the result by 57% ends at 19.5779, because the second 57% is taken of a bigger number.
