How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 28 ÷ 53 = 0.528302
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.528302 × 100 = 52.8302%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 52.8302% of 53 is 0.528302 × 53 = 28.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 28/53 = p/100, so p = 28 × 100 ÷ 53 = 52.8302%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =28/53*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.
