How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 21 ÷ 66 = 0.318182
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.318182 × 100 = 31.8182%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.8182% of 66 is 0.318182 × 66 = 21.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 21/66 = p/100, so p = 21 × 100 ÷ 66 = 31.8182%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =21/66*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.
