How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 37 ÷ 59 = 0.627119
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.627119 × 100 = 62.7119%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 62.7119% of 59 is 0.627119 × 59 = 37.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/59 = p/100, so p = 37 × 100 ÷ 59 = 62.7119%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =37/59*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.
