How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 71 ÷ 100 = 0.71
- Multiply: 0.71 × 88 = 62.48
- Check: Work backwards: 62.48 ÷ 88 × 100 = 71%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/100 = part/88, so part = 71 × 88 ÷ 100 = 62.48. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =71%*88. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 71%
Increasing 88 by 71% gives 150.48 and decreasing it by 71% gives 25.52. These do not cancel out: raising 88 by 71% and then lowering the result by 71% ends at 43.6392, because the second 71% is taken of a bigger number.
