How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 34 ÷ 71 = 0.478873
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.478873 × 100 = 47.8873%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 47.8873% of 71 is 0.478873 × 71 = 34.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 34/71 = p/100, so p = 34 × 100 ÷ 71 = 47.8873%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =34/71*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.
