How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 23 ÷ 58 = 0.396552
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.396552 × 100 = 39.6552%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 39.6552% of 58 is 0.396552 × 58 = 23.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 23/58 = p/100, so p = 23 × 100 ÷ 58 = 39.6552%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =23/58*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.
