How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 23 ÷ 24 = 0.958333
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.958333 × 100 = 95.8333%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 95.8333% of 24 is 0.958333 × 24 = 23.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 23/24 = p/100, so p = 23 × 100 ÷ 24 = 95.8333%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =23/24*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.
