How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
  2. Multiply: 0.62 × 80 = 49.6
  3. Check: Work backwards: 49.6 ÷ 80 × 100 = 62%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 62/100 = part/80, so part = 62 × 80 ÷ 100 = 49.6. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =62%*80. 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

49.6 is the 62% share of 80. The remaining 38% is 30.4, and the two parts add back up to 80.

Discounts: 62% off an item priced $80 saves $49.6, so you pay $30.4.

Adding and taking away 62%

Increasing 80 by 62% gives 129.6 and decreasing it by 62% gives 30.4. These do not cancel out: raising 80 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 49.248, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
