How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
  2. Multiply: 0.62 × 63 = 39.06
  3. Check: Work backwards: 39.06 ÷ 63 × 100 = 62%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 62/100 = part/63, so part = 62 × 63 ÷ 100 = 39.06. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =62%*63. 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

39.06 is the 62% share of 63. The remaining 38% is 23.94, and the two parts add back up to 63.

Discounts: 62% off an item priced $63 saves $39.06, so you pay $23.94.

Adding and taking away 62%

Increasing 63 by 62% gives 102.06 and decreasing it by 62% gives 23.94. These do not cancel out: raising 63 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 38.7828, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
