How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 47 ÷ 75 = 0.626667
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.626667 × 100 = 62.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 62.6667% of 75 is 0.626667 × 75 = 47.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 47/75 = p/100, so p = 47 × 100 ÷ 75 = 62.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =47/75*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.
