How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
  2. Multiply: 0.62 × 9 = 5.58
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.58 ÷ 9 × 100 = 62%.

In a spreadsheet: =62%*9. 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

5.58 is the 62% share of 9. The remaining 38% is 3.42, and the two parts add back up to 9.

Discounts: 62% off an item priced $9 saves $5.58, so you pay $3.42.

Adding and taking away 62%

Increasing 9 by 62% gives 14.58 and decreasing it by 62% gives 3.42. These do not cancel out: raising 9 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 5.5404, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
