How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
  2. Multiply: 0.62 × 4 = 2.48
  3. Check: Work backwards: 2.48 ÷ 4 × 100 = 62%.

In a spreadsheet: =62%*4. 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

2.48 is the 62% share of 4. The remaining 38% is 1.52, and the two parts add back up to 4.

Discounts: 62% off an item priced $4 saves $2.48, so you pay $1.52.

Adding and taking away 62%

Increasing 4 by 62% gives 6.48 and decreasing it by 62% gives 1.52. These do not cancel out: raising 4 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 2.4624, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
