How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 45 ÷ 84 = 0.535714
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.535714 × 100 = 53.5714%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 53.5714% of 84 is 0.535714 × 84 = 45.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 45/84 = p/100, so p = 45 × 100 ÷ 84 = 53.5714%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =45/84*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.
