How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 60 ÷ 100 = 0.6
- Multiply: 0.6 × 43 = 25.8
- Check: Work backwards: 25.8 ÷ 43 × 100 = 60%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 60/100 = part/43, so part = 60 × 43 ÷ 100 = 25.8. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =60%*43. 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
25.8 is the 60% share of 43. The remaining 40% is 17.2, and the two parts add back up to 43.

Adding and taking away 60%
Increasing 43 by 60% gives 68.8 and decreasing it by 60% gives 17.2. These do not cancel out: raising 43 by 60% and then lowering the result by 60% ends at 27.52, because the second 60% is taken of a bigger number.
