How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 36 ÷ 62 = 0.580645
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.580645 × 100 = 58.0645%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 58.0645% of 62 is 0.580645 × 62 = 36.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 36/62 = p/100, so p = 36 × 100 ÷ 62 = 58.0645%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =36/62*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.
