How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 10 ÷ 26 = 0.384615
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.384615 × 100 = 38.4615%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 38.4615% of 26 is 0.384615 × 26 = 10.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 10/26 = p/100, so p = 10 × 100 ÷ 26 = 38.4615%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =10/26*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

10 is between a quarter and a half of 26. The part that is left, 16, is the other 61.5385%.
