How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 45 ÷ 17 = 2.647059
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.647059 × 100 = 264.7059%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 264.7059% of 17 is 2.647059 × 17 = 45.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 45/17 = p/100, so p = 45 × 100 ÷ 17 = 264.7059%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =45/17*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.
