How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 30 ÷ 74 = 0.405405
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.405405 × 100 = 40.5405%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 40.5405% of 74 is 0.405405 × 74 = 30.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 30/74 = p/100, so p = 30 × 100 ÷ 74 = 40.5405%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =30/74*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.
