How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 30 ÷ 96 = 0.3125
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.3125 × 100 = 31.25%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.25% of 96 is 0.3125 × 96 = 30.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 30/96 = p/100, so p = 30 × 100 ÷ 96 = 31.25%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =30/96*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.

What the result means

30 is between a quarter and a half of 96. The part that is left, 66, is the other 68.75%.

Test scores: 30 correct answers out of 96 is a score of 31.25%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.

Turning it around

If you know that 30 is 31.25% of a number, you can get that number back: 30 ÷ 0.3125 = 96. And 96 as a percentage of 30 is 320%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
