How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 21 ÷ 92 = 0.228261
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.228261 × 100 = 22.8261%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 22.8261% of 92 is 0.228261 × 92 = 21.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 21/92 = p/100, so p = 21 × 100 ÷ 92 = 22.8261%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =21/92*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.
