How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 16 ÷ 66 = 0.242424
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.242424 × 100 = 24.2424%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 24.2424% of 66 is 0.242424 × 66 = 16.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 16/66 = p/100, so p = 16 × 100 ÷ 66 = 24.2424%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =16/66*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.
