How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 39 ÷ 77 = 0.506494
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.506494 × 100 = 50.6494%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 50.6494% of 77 is 0.506494 × 77 = 39.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 39/77 = p/100, so p = 39 × 100 ÷ 77 = 50.6494%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =39/77*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.
