How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 49 ÷ 31 = 1.580645
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.580645 × 100 = 158.0645%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 158.0645% of 31 is 1.580645 × 31 = 49.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 49/31 = p/100, so p = 49 × 100 ÷ 31 = 158.0645%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =49/31*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.
