How to work it out

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

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

In a spreadsheet: =38/38*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.

What the result means

38 is exactly the whole amount of 38.

Test scores: 38 correct answers out of 38 is a score of 100%, which on a common US grading scale is an A.

Turning it around

If you know that 38 is 100% of a number, you can get that number back: 38 ÷ 1 = 38. And 38 as a percentage of 38 is 100%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
