How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 44 ÷ 61 = 0.721311
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.721311 × 100 = 72.1311%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 72.1311% of 61 is 0.721311 × 61 = 44.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 44/61 = p/100, so p = 44 × 100 ÷ 61 = 72.1311%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =44/61*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.
