How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 18 ÷ 46 = 0.391304
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.391304 × 100 = 39.1304%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 39.1304% of 46 is 0.391304 × 46 = 18.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 18/46 = p/100, so p = 18 × 100 ÷ 46 = 39.1304%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =18/46*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.
