How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 24 ÷ 39 = 0.615385
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.615385 × 100 = 61.5385%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 61.5385% of 39 is 0.615385 × 39 = 24.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 24/39 = p/100, so p = 24 × 100 ÷ 39 = 61.5385%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =24/39*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.
