How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 60 ÷ 100 = 0.6
- Multiply: 0.6 × 58 = 34.8
- Check: Work backwards: 34.8 ÷ 58 × 100 = 60%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 60/100 = part/58, so part = 60 × 58 ÷ 100 = 34.8. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =60%*58. 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
34.8 is the 60% share of 58. The remaining 40% is 23.2, and the two parts add back up to 58.
Discounts: 60% off an item priced $58 saves $34.8, so you pay $23.2.
Adding and taking away 60%
Increasing 58 by 60% gives 92.8 and decreasing it by 60% gives 23.2. These do not cancel out: raising 58 by 60% and then lowering the result by 60% ends at 37.12, because the second 60% is taken of a bigger number.
