How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 2 ÷ 92 = 0.021739
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.021739 × 100 = 2.1739%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 2.1739% of 92 is 0.021739 × 92 = 2.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 2/92 = p/100, so p = 2 × 100 ÷ 92 = 2.1739%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =2/92*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.

What the result means

2 is less than a tenth of 92. The part that is left, 90, is the other 97.8261%.

Test scores: 2 correct answers out of 92 is a score of 2.1739%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.

Turning it around
