How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 26 ÷ 97 = 0.268041
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.268041 × 100 = 26.8041%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 26.8041% of 97 is 0.268041 × 97 = 26.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 26/97 = p/100, so p = 26 × 100 ÷ 97 = 26.8041%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =26/97*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.
