How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 29 ÷ 34 = 0.852941
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.852941 × 100 = 85.2941%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 85.2941% of 34 is 0.852941 × 34 = 29.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/34 = p/100, so p = 29 × 100 ÷ 34 = 85.2941%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29/34*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.
