How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
- Multiply: 0.71 × 29 = 20.59
- Check: Work backwards: 20.59 ÷ 29 × 100 = 71%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/29, so part = 71 × 29 ÷ 100 = 20.59. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =71%*29. 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

Adding and taking away 71%
Increasing 29 by 71% gives 49.59 and decreasing it by 71% gives 8.41. These do not cancel out: raising 29 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 14.3811, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
