How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 48 ÷ 92 = 0.521739
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.521739 × 100 = 52.1739%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 52.1739% of 92 is 0.521739 × 92 = 48.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 48/92 = p/100, so p = 48 × 100 ÷ 92 = 52.1739%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =48/92*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.
