How to work it out
- Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
- Multiply: 0.99 × 62 = 61.38
- Check: Work backwards: 61.38 ÷ 62 × 100 = 99%.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/62, so part = 99 × 62 ÷ 100 = 61.38. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =99%*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

Adding and taking away 99%
