How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 14 ÷ 36 = 0.388889
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.388889 × 100 = 38.8889%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 38.8889% of 36 is 0.388889 × 36 = 14.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 14/36 = p/100, so p = 14 × 100 ÷ 36 = 38.8889%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =14/36*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.
