How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 63 ÷ 100 = 0.63
  2. Multiply: 0.63 × 62 = 39.06
  3. Check: Work backwards: 39.06 ÷ 62 × 100 = 63%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 63/100 = part/62, so part = 63 × 62 ÷ 100 = 39.06. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =63%*62. 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

39.06 is the 63% share of 62. The remaining 37% is 22.94, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 63% off an item priced $62 saves $39.06, so you pay $22.94.

Adding and taking away 63%

Increasing 62 by 63% gives 101.06 and decreasing it by 63% gives 22.94. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 63% and then lowering the result by 63% ends at 37.3922, because the second 63% is taken of a bigger number.
