How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
  2. Multiply: 0.62 × 64 = 39.68
  3. Check: Work backwards: 39.68 ÷ 64 × 100 = 62%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 62/100 = part/64, so part = 62 × 64 ÷ 100 = 39.68. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =62%*64. 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

39.68 is the 62% share of 64. The remaining 38% is 24.32, and the two parts add back up to 64.

Discounts: 62% off an item priced $64 saves $39.68, so you pay $24.32.

Adding and taking away 62%

Increasing 64 by 62% gives 103.68 and decreasing it by 62% gives 24.32. These do not cancel out: raising 64 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 39.3984, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
