How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 13 ÷ 83 = 0.156627
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.156627 × 100 = 15.6627%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 15.6627% of 83 is 0.156627 × 83 = 13.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 13/83 = p/100, so p = 13 × 100 ÷ 83 = 15.6627%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =13/83*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.
