How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 38 ÷ 34 = 1.117647
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.117647 × 100 = 111.7647%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 111.7647% of 34 is 1.117647 × 34 = 38.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 38/34 = p/100, so p = 38 × 100 ÷ 34 = 111.7647%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =38/34*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.
