Umm, I usually work with American dollars, but I'll roll with it.

You want to find 41 percent of 860 and subtract it from 860. 

Make a proportion:

x/860=41/100

Cross multiply:

860*41=35260

35260=100x

Divide both sides by 100 to get x alone. 

x=352.60

Now, we are not done yet.

Subtract your value of x from 860

860-352.60=507.40

Your final answer: £507.40
