How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 76 ÷ 100 = 0.76
- Multiply: 0.76 × 59 = 44.84
- Check: Work backwards: 44.84 ÷ 59 × 100 = 76%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 76/100 = part/59, so part = 76 × 59 ÷ 100 = 44.84. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =76%*59. 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

Adding and taking away 76%
Increasing 59 by 76% gives 103.84 and decreasing it by 76% gives 14.16. These do not cancel out: raising 59 by 76% and then lowering the result by 76% ends at 24.9216, because the second 76% is taken of a bigger number.
