How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 27 ÷ 35 = 0.771429
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.771429 × 100 = 77.1429%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 77.1429% of 35 is 0.771429 × 35 = 27.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 27/35 = p/100, so p = 27 × 100 ÷ 35 = 77.1429%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =27/35*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.
