How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
  2. Multiply: 0.71 × 58 = 41.18
  3. Check: Work backwards: 41.18 ÷ 58 × 100 = 71%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/58, so part = 71 × 58 ÷ 100 = 41.18. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =71%*58. 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

41.18 is the 71% share of 58. The remaining 29% is 16.82, and the two parts add back up to 58.

Discounts: 71% off an item priced $58 saves $41.18, so you pay $16.82.

Adding and taking away 71%

Increasing 58 by 71% gives 99.18 and decreasing it by 71% gives 16.82. These do not cancel out: raising 58 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 28.7622, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
