How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 12 ÷ 29 = 0.413793
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.413793 × 100 = 41.3793%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 41.3793% of 29 is 0.413793 × 29 = 12.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 12/29 = p/100, so p = 12 × 100 ÷ 29 = 41.3793%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =12/29*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.
