How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 22 ÷ 12 = 1.833333
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.833333 × 100 = 183.3333%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 183.3333% of 12 is 1.833333 × 12 = 22.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 22/12 = p/100, so p = 22 × 100 ÷ 12 = 183.3333%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =22/12*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.
