How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 29 ÷ 57 = 0.508772
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.508772 × 100 = 50.8772%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 50.8772% of 57 is 0.508772 × 57 = 29.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/57 = p/100, so p = 29 × 100 ÷ 57 = 50.8772%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29/57*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.
