How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 2 ÷ 19 = 0.105263
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.105263 × 100 = 10.5263%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 10.5263% of 19 is 0.105263 × 19 = 2.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 2/19 = p/100, so p = 2 × 100 ÷ 19 = 10.5263%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =2/19*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

2 is between a tenth and a quarter of 19. The part that is left, 17, is the other 89.4737%.

Turning it around

If you know that 2 is 10.5263% of a number, you can get that number back: 2 ÷ 0.105263 = 19. And 19 as a percentage of 2 is 950%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
