How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 46 ÷ 89 = 0.516854
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.516854 × 100 = 51.6854%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 51.6854% of 89 is 0.516854 × 89 = 46.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 46/89 = p/100, so p = 46 × 100 ÷ 89 = 51.6854%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =46/89*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.
