How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 50 ÷ 63 = 0.793651
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.793651 × 100 = 79.3651%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 79.3651% of 63 is 0.793651 × 63 = 50.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 50/63 = p/100, so p = 50 × 100 ÷ 63 = 79.3651%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =50/63*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.
