How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 62 ÷ 100 = 0.62
- Multiply: 0.62 × 99 = 61.38
- Check: Work backwards: 61.38 ÷ 99 × 100 = 62%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 62/100 = part/99, so part = 62 × 99 ÷ 100 = 61.38. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =62%*99. 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
61.38 is the 62% share of 99. The remaining 38% is 37.62, and the two parts add back up to 99.

Adding and taking away 62%
Increasing 99 by 62% gives 160.38 and decreasing it by 62% gives 37.62. These do not cancel out: raising 99 by 62% and then lowering the result by 62% ends at 60.9444, because the second 62% is taken of a bigger number.
