How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 5 ÷ 14 = 0.357143
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.357143 × 100 = 35.7143%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 35.7143% of 14 is 0.357143 × 14 = 5.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 5/14 = p/100, so p = 5 × 100 ÷ 14 = 35.7143%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =5/14*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.

What the result means

5 is between a quarter and a half of 14. The part that is left, 9, is the other 64.2857%.

Test scores: 5 correct answers out of 14 is a score of 35.7143%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.
