How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 1 ÷ 98 = 0.010204
- Multiply by 100: 0.010204 × 100 = 1.0204%
- Check: Work backwards: 1.0204% of 98 is 0.010204 × 98 = 1.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 1/98 = p/100, so p = 1 × 100 ÷ 98 = 1.0204%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =1/98*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.
