How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 43 ÷ 28 = 1.535714
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.535714 × 100 = 153.5714%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 153.5714% of 28 is 1.535714 × 28 = 43.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/28 = p/100, so p = 43 × 100 ÷ 28 = 153.5714%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43/28*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.
