How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 31 ÷ 98 = 0.316327
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.316327 × 100 = 31.6327%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 31.6327% of 98 is 0.316327 × 98 = 31.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 31/98 = p/100, so p = 31 × 100 ÷ 98 = 31.6327%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =31/98*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.
