How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
  2. Multiply: 0.62 × 66 = 40.92
  3. Check: Work backwards: 40.92 ÷ 66 × 100 = 62%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 62/100 = part/66, so part = 62 × 66 ÷ 100 = 40.92. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =62%*66. 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

40.92 is the 62% share of 66. The remaining 38% is 25.08, and the two parts add back up to 66.

Discounts: 62% off an item priced $66 saves $40.92, so you pay $25.08.

Adding and taking away 62%

Increasing 66 by 62% gives 106.92 and decreasing it by 62% gives 25.08. These do not cancel out: raising 66 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 40.6296, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
