How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 58 ÷ 100 = 0.58
- Multiply: 0.58 × 62 = 35.96
- Check: Work backwards: 35.96 ÷ 62 × 100 = 58%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 58/100 = part/62, so part = 58 × 62 ÷ 100 = 35.96. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =58%*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.
