How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 29 ÷ 61 = 0.47541
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.47541 × 100 = 47.541%

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/61 = p/100, so p = 29 × 100 ÷ 61 = 47.541%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29/61*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.
