How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 58 ÷ 100 = 0.58
- Multiply: 0.58 × 99 = 57.42
- Check: Work backwards: 57.42 ÷ 99 × 100 = 58%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 58/100 = part/99, so part = 58 × 99 ÷ 100 = 57.42. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =58%*99. 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 58%
Increasing 99 by 58% gives 156.42 and decreasing it by 58% gives 41.58. These do not cancel out: raising 99 by 58% and then lowering the result by 58% ends at 65.6964, because the second 58% is taken of a bigger number.
