How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 28 ÷ 46 = 0.608696
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.608696 × 100 = 60.8696%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 60.8696% of 46 is 0.608696 × 46 = 28.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 28/46 = p/100, so p = 28 × 100 ÷ 46 = 60.8696%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =28/46*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.
