How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 15 ÷ 46 = 0.326087
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.326087 × 100 = 32.6087%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 32.6087% of 46 is 0.326087 × 46 = 15.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 15/46 = p/100, so p = 15 × 100 ÷ 46 = 32.6087%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =15/46*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.
