How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 7 ÷ 100 = 0.07
  2. Multiply: 0.07 × 81 = 5.67
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5.67 ÷ 81 × 100 = 7%.

In a spreadsheet: =7%*81. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
