How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 15 ÷ 64 = 0.234375
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.234375 × 100 = 23.4375%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 23.4375% of 64 is 0.234375 × 64 = 15.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 15/64 = p/100, so p = 15 × 100 ÷ 64 = 23.4375%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =15/64*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.

What the result means

15 is between a tenth and a quarter of 64. The part that is left, 49, is the other 76.5625%.
