How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 43 ÷ 12 = 3.583333
  2. Multiply by 100: 3.583333 × 100 = 358.3333%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 358.3333% of 12 is 3.583333 × 12 = 43.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/12 = p/100, so p = 43 × 100 ÷ 12 = 358.3333%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43/12*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.
