How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 57 ÷ 100 = 0.57
  2. Multiply: 0.57 × 62 = 35.34
  3. Check: Work backwards: 35.34 ÷ 62 × 100 = 57%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/100 = part/62, so part = 57 × 62 ÷ 100 = 35.34. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =57%*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

35.34 is the 57% share of 62. The remaining 43% is 26.66, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 57% off an item priced $62 saves $35.34, so you pay $26.66.

Adding and taking away 57%

Increasing 62 by 57% gives 97.34 and decreasing it by 57% gives 26.66. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 57% and then lowering the result by 57% ends at 41.8562, because the second 57% is taken of a bigger number.
