How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 11 ÷ 87 = 0.126437
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.126437 × 100 = 12.6437%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 12.6437% of 87 is 0.126437 × 87 = 11.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 11/87 = p/100, so p = 11 × 100 ÷ 87 = 12.6437%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =11/87*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.
