How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 27 ÷ 92 = 0.293478
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.293478 × 100 = 29.3478%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 29.3478% of 92 is 0.293478 × 92 = 27.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 27/92 = p/100, so p = 27 × 100 ÷ 92 = 29.3478%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =27/92*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.
