How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 26 ÷ 14 = 1.857143
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.857143 × 100 = 185.7143%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 185.7143% of 14 is 1.857143 × 14 = 26.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 26/14 = p/100, so p = 26 × 100 ÷ 14 = 185.7143%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =26/14*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.
