How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 43 ÷ 89 = 0.483146
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.483146 × 100 = 48.3146%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 48.3146% of 89 is 0.483146 × 89 = 43.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/89 = p/100, so p = 43 × 100 ÷ 89 = 48.3146%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43/89*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.
