How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 43 ÷ 49 = 0.877551
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.877551 × 100 = 87.7551%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 87.7551% of 49 is 0.877551 × 49 = 43.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/49 = p/100, so p = 43 × 100 ÷ 49 = 87.7551%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43/49*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.
