How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 29 ÷ 39 = 0.74359
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.74359 × 100 = 74.359%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 74.359% of 39 is 0.74359 × 39 = 29.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/39 = p/100, so p = 29 × 100 ÷ 39 = 74.359%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29/39*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.
