How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
  2. Multiply: 0.71 × 77 = 54.67
  3. Check: Work backwards: 54.67 ÷ 77 × 100 = 71%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/77, so part = 71 × 77 ÷ 100 = 54.67. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =71%*77. 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

54.67 is the 71% share of 77. The remaining 29% is 22.33, and the two parts add back up to 77.

Discounts: 71% off an item priced $77 saves $54.67, so you pay $22.33.

Adding and taking away 71%

Increasing 77 by 71% gives 131.67 and decreasing it by 71% gives 22.33. These do not cancel out: raising 77 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 38.1843, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
