How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 67 ÷ 100 = 0.67
  2. Multiply: 0.67 × 87 = 58.29
  3. Check: Work backwards: 58.29 ÷ 87 × 100 = 67%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 67/100 = part/87, so part = 67 × 87 ÷ 100 = 58.29. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =67%*87. 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

58.29 is the 67% share of 87. The remaining 33% is 28.71, and the two parts add back up to 87.

Discounts: 67% off an item priced $87 saves $58.29, so you pay $28.71.

Adding and taking away 67%

Increasing 87 by 67% gives 145.29 and decreasing it by 67% gives 28.71. These do not cancel out: raising 87 by 67% and then lowering the result by 67% ends at 47.9457, because the second 67% is taken of a bigger number.
