How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 23 ÷ 29 = 0.793103
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.793103 × 100 = 79.3103%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 79.3103% of 29 is 0.793103 × 29 = 23.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 23/29 = p/100, so p = 23 × 100 ÷ 29 = 79.3103%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =23/29*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.
