How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 63 ÷ 100 = 0.63
  2. Multiply: 0.63 × 9 = 5.67
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.67 ÷ 9 × 100 = 63%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 63/100 = part/9, so part = 63 × 9 ÷ 100 = 5.67. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =63%*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

5.67 is the 63% share of 9. The remaining 37% is 3.33, and the two parts add back up to 9.

Discounts: 63% off an item priced $9 saves $5.67, so you pay $3.33.

Adding and taking away 63%

Increasing 9 by 63% gives 14.67 and decreasing it by 63% gives 3.33. These do not cancel out: raising 9 by 63% and then lowering the result by 63% ends at 5.4279, because the second 63% is taken of a bigger number.
