How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 17 ÷ 92 = 0.184783
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.184783 × 100 = 18.4783%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 18.4783% of 92 is 0.184783 × 92 = 17.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 17/92 = p/100, so p = 17 × 100 ÷ 92 = 18.4783%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =17/92*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.
