How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 14 ÷ 27 = 0.518519
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.518519 × 100 = 51.8519%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 51.8519% of 27 is 0.518519 × 27 = 14.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/27 = p/100, so p = 14 × 100 ÷ 27 = 51.8519%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =14/27*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.
