How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
  2. Multiply: 0.71 × 62 = 44.02
  3. Check: Work backwards: 44.02 ÷ 62 × 100 = 71%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/62, so part = 71 × 62 ÷ 100 = 44.02. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =71%*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

44.02 is the 71% share of 62. The remaining 29% is 17.98, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 71% off an item priced $62 saves $44.02, so you pay $17.98.

Adding and taking away 71%

Increasing 62 by 71% gives 106.02 and decreasing it by 71% gives 17.98. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 30.7458, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
