How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 10 ÷ 83 = 0.120482
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.120482 × 100 = 12.0482%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 12.0482% of 83 is 0.120482 × 83 = 10.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 10/83 = p/100, so p = 10 × 100 ÷ 83 = 12.0482%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =10/83*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 83. The part that is left, 73, is the other 87.9518%.
