How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 45 ÷ 400 = 0.1125
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.1125 × 100 = 11.25%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 11.25% of 400 is 0.1125 × 400 = 45.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 45/400 = p/100, so p = 45 × 100 ÷ 400 = 11.25%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =45/400*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.
