  1. Divide the part by the whole: 48 ÷ 62 = 0.774194
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.774194 × 100 = 77.4194%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 77.4194% of 62 is 0.774194 × 62 = 48.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 48/62 = p/100, so p = 48 × 100 ÷ 62 = 77.4194%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =48/62*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.
