How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 20 ÷ 61 = 0.327869
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.327869 × 100 = 32.7869%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 32.7869% of 61 is 0.327869 × 61 = 20.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 20/61 = p/100, so p = 20 × 100 ÷ 61 = 32.7869%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =20/61*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.
