How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 100 ÷ 300 = 0.333333
- Multiply by 100: 0.333333 × 100 = 33.3333%
- Check: Work backwards: 33.3333% of 300 is 0.333333 × 300 = 100.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 100/300 = p/100, so p = 100 × 100 ÷ 300 = 33.3333%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =100/300*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.
