How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 89 ÷ 100 = 0.89
- Multiply: 0.89 × 75 = 66.75
- Check: Work backwards: 66.75 ÷ 75 × 100 = 89%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 89/100 = part/75, so part = 89 × 75 ÷ 100 = 66.75. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =89%*75. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

Adding and taking away 89%
Increasing 75 by 89% gives 141.75 and decreasing it by 89% gives 8.25. These do not cancel out: raising 75 by 89% and then lowering the result by 89% ends at 15.5925, because the second 89% is taken of a bigger number.
