How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 83 ÷ 100 = 0.83
- Multiply: 0.83 × 62 = 51.46
- Check: Work backwards: 51.46 ÷ 62 × 100 = 83%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 83/100 = part/62, so part = 83 × 62 ÷ 100 = 51.46. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =83%*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.
