How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 4 ÷ 26 = 0.153846
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.153846 × 100 = 15.3846%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 15.3846% of 26 is 0.153846 × 26 = 4.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 4/26 = p/100, so p = 4 × 100 ÷ 26 = 15.3846%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =4/26*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

4 is between a tenth and a quarter of 26. The part that is left, 22, is the other 84.6154%.
