How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 11 ÷ 50 = 0.22
- Multiply by 100: 0.22 × 100 = 22%
- Check: Work backwards: 22% of 50 is 0.22 × 50 = 11.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/50 = p/100, so p = 11 × 100 ÷ 50 = 22%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =11/50*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
11 is between a tenth and a quarter of 50. The part that is left, 39, is the other 78%.
