How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 63 ÷ 100 = 0.63
  2. Multiply: 0.63 × 43 = 27.09
  3. Check: Work backwards: 27.09 ÷ 43 × 100 = 63%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 63/100 = part/43, so part = 63 × 43 ÷ 100 = 27.09. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =63%*43. 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

27.09 is the 63% share of 43. The remaining 37% is 15.91, and the two parts add back up to 43.

Discounts: 63% off an item priced $43 saves $27.09, so you pay $15.91.

Adding and taking away 63%

Increasing 43 by 63% gives 70.09 and decreasing it by 63% gives 15.91. These do not cancel out: raising 43 by 63% and then lowering the result by 63% ends at 25.9333, because the second 63% is taken of a bigger number.
