How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 75 ÷ 100 = 0.75
- Multiply: 0.75 × 99 = 74.25
- Check: Work backwards: 74.25 ÷ 99 × 100 = 75%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/100 = part/99, so part = 75 × 99 ÷ 100 = 74.25. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =75%*99. 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 75%
Increasing 99 by 75% gives 173.25 and decreasing it by 75% gives 24.75. These do not cancel out: raising 99 by 75% and then lowering the result by 75% ends at 43.3125, because the second 75% is taken of a bigger number.
