How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 73 ÷ 100 = 0.73
- Multiply: 0.73 × 54 = 39.42
- Check: Work backwards: 39.42 ÷ 54 × 100 = 73%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 73/100 = part/54, so part = 73 × 54 ÷ 100 = 39.42. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =73%*54. 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
39.42 is the 73% share of 54. The remaining 27% is 14.58, and the two parts add back up to 54.

Adding and taking away 73%
Increasing 54 by 73% gives 93.42 and decreasing it by 73% gives 14.58. These do not cancel out: raising 54 by 73% and then lowering the result by 73% ends at 25.2234, because the second 73% is taken of a bigger number.
