How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 31 ÷ 84 = 0.369048
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.369048 × 100 = 36.9048%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 36.9048% of 84 is 0.369048 × 84 = 31.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/84 = p/100, so p = 31 × 100 ÷ 84 = 36.9048%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =31/84*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.
