How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 63 ÷ 100 = 0.63
- Multiply: 0.63 × 55 = 34.65
- Check: Work backwards: 34.65 ÷ 55 × 100 = 63%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 63/100 = part/55, so part = 63 × 55 ÷ 100 = 34.65. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =63%*55. 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

Adding and taking away 63%
Increasing 55 by 63% gives 89.65 and decreasing it by 63% gives 20.35. These do not cancel out: raising 55 by 63% and then lowering the result by 63% ends at 33.1705, because the second 63% is taken of a bigger number.
