How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 31 ÷ 24 = 1.291667
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.291667 × 100 = 129.1667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 129.1667% of 24 is 1.291667 × 24 = 31.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/24 = p/100, so p = 31 × 100 ÷ 24 = 129.1667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =31/24*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.
