How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 1 ÷ 62 = 0.016129
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.016129 × 100 = 1.6129%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 1.6129% of 62 is 0.016129 × 62 = 1.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 1/62 = p/100, so p = 1 × 100 ÷ 62 = 1.6129%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =1/62*100. Dividing the wrong way round (whole ÷ part) gives a different answer. The number after “of” is always the whole, so it goes on the bottom.
