How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 75 ÷ 100 = 0.75
  2. Multiply: 0.75 × 1000 = 750
  3. Check: Work backwards: 750 ÷ 1000 × 100 = 75%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/100 = part/1000, so part = 75 × 1000 ÷ 100 = 750. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =75%*1000. 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

750 is the 75% share of 1000. The remaining 25% is 250, and the two parts add back up to 1000.

Discounts: 75% off an item priced $1,000 saves $750, so you pay $250.

Adding and taking away 75%

Increasing 1000 by 75% gives 1,750 and decreasing it by 75% gives 250. These do not cancel out: raising 1000 by 75% and then lowering the result by 75% ends at 437.5, because the second 75% is taken of a bigger number.

The other way round: 1000% of 75. 75% of 1000 and 1000% of 75 are always equal (both are 75 × 1000 ÷ 100 = 750), so you can swap the numbers when one order is easier to work out in your head.
