How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 43 ÷ 61 = 0.704918
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.704918 × 100 = 70.4918%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 70.4918% of 61 is 0.704918 × 61 = 43.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/61 = p/100, so p = 43 × 100 ÷ 61 = 70.4918%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43/61*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.
