How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 1 ÷ 77 = 0.012987
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.012987 × 100 = 1.2987%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 1.2987% of 77 is 0.012987 × 77 = 1.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 1/77 = p/100, so p = 1 × 100 ÷ 77 = 1.2987%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =1/77*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.

What the result means

1 is less than a tenth of 77. The part that is left, 76, is the other 98.7013%.
