How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 66 ÷ 100 = 0.66
  2. Multiply: 0.66 × 62 = 40.92
  3. Check: Work backwards: 40.92 ÷ 62 × 100 = 66%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/100 = part/62, so part = 66 × 62 ÷ 100 = 40.92. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =66%*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

40.92 is the 66% share of 62. The remaining 34% is 21.08, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 66% off an item priced $62 saves $40.92, so you pay $21.08.

Adding and taking away 66%

Increasing 62 by 66% gives 102.92 and decreasing it by 66% gives 21.08. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 66% and then lowering the result by 66% ends at 34.9928, because the second 66% is taken of a bigger number.
