How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 82 ÷ 100 = 0.82
  2. Multiply: 0.82 × 62 = 50.84
  3. Check: Work backwards: 50.84 ÷ 62 × 100 = 82%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/100 = part/62, so part = 82 × 62 ÷ 100 = 50.84. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =82%*62. 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

50.84 is the 82% share of 62. The remaining 18% is 11.16, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 82% off an item priced $62 saves $50.84, so you pay $11.16.

Adding and taking away 82%

Increasing 62 by 82% gives 112.84 and decreasing it by 82% gives 11.16. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 82% and then lowering the result by 82% ends at 20.3112, because the second 82% is taken of a bigger number.
