How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 84 ÷ 100 = 0.84
  2. Multiply: 0.84 × 62 = 52.08
  3. Check: Work backwards: 52.08 ÷ 62 × 100 = 84%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 84/100 = part/62, so part = 84 × 62 ÷ 100 = 52.08. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =84%*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

52.08 is the 84% share of 62. The remaining 16% is 9.92, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 84% off an item priced $62 saves $52.08, so you pay $9.92.

Adding and taking away 84%

Increasing 62 by 84% gives 114.08 and decreasing it by 84% gives 9.92. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 84% and then lowering the result by 84% ends at 18.2528, because the second 84% is taken of a bigger number.
