How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 83 ÷ 100 = 0.83
- Multiply: 0.83 × 71 = 58.93
- Check: Work backwards: 58.93 ÷ 71 × 100 = 83%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 83/100 = part/71, so part = 83 × 71 ÷ 100 = 58.93. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =83%*71. 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 83%
Increasing 71 by 83% gives 129.93 and decreasing it by 83% gives 12.07. These do not cancel out: raising 71 by 83% and then lowering the result by 83% ends at 22.0881, because the second 83% is taken of a bigger number.
