How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 39 ÷ 45 = 0.866667
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.866667 × 100 = 86.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 86.6667% of 45 is 0.866667 × 45 = 39.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 39/45 = p/100, so p = 39 × 100 ÷ 45 = 86.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =39/45*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.
