How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 49 ÷ 17 = 2.882353
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.882353 × 100 = 288.2353%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 288.2353% of 17 is 2.882353 × 17 = 49.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/17 = p/100, so p = 49 × 100 ÷ 17 = 288.2353%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =49/17*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.
