How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 10 ÷ 62 = 0.16129
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.16129 × 100 = 16.129%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 16.129% of 62 is 0.16129 × 62 = 10.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 10/62 = p/100, so p = 10 × 100 ÷ 62 = 16.129%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =10/62*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.

What the result means

10 is between a tenth and a quarter of 62. The part that is left, 52, is the other 83.871%.
