How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 26 ÷ 46 = 0.565217
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.565217 × 100 = 56.5217%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 56.5217% of 46 is 0.565217 × 46 = 26.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 26/46 = p/100, so p = 26 × 100 ÷ 46 = 56.5217%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =26/46*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.
