How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 8 ÷ 100 = 0.08
- Multiply: 0.08 × 63 = 5.04
- Check: Work backwards: 5.04 ÷ 63 × 100 = 8%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 8/100 = part/63, so part = 8 × 63 ÷ 100 = 5.04. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =8%*63. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.
