How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 38 ÷ 49 = 0.77551
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.77551 × 100 = 77.551%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 77.551% of 49 is 0.77551 × 49 = 38.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 38/49 = p/100, so p = 38 × 100 ÷ 49 = 77.551%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =38/49*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.
