How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 75 ÷ 100 = 0.75
- Multiply: 0.75 × 7 = 5.25
- Check: Work backwards: 5.25 ÷ 7 × 100 = 75%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/100 = part/7, so part = 75 × 7 ÷ 100 = 5.25. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =75%*7. 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
5.25 is the 75% share of 7. The remaining 25% is 1.75, and the two parts add back up to 7.
Discounts: 75% off an item priced $7 saves $5.25, so you pay $1.75.
Adding and taking away 75%
Increasing 7 by 75% gives 12.25 and decreasing it by 75% gives 1.75. These do not cancel out: raising 7 by 75% and then lowering the result by 75% ends at 3.0625, because the second 75% is taken of a bigger number.
