How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 91 ÷ 100 = 0.91
  2. Multiply: 0.91 × 62 = 56.42
  3. Check: Work backwards: 56.42 ÷ 62 × 100 = 91%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 91/100 = part/62, so part = 91 × 62 ÷ 100 = 56.42. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =91%*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

56.42 is the 91% share of 62. The remaining 9% is 5.58, and the two parts add back up to 62.

Discounts: 91% off an item priced $62 saves $56.42, so you pay $5.58.

Adding and taking away 91%

Increasing 62 by 91% gives 118.42 and decreasing it by 91% gives 5.58. These do not cancel out: raising 62 by 91% and then lowering the result by 91% ends at 10.6578, because the second 91% is taken of a bigger number.
