How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 500 ÷ 35 = 14.285714
  2. Multiply by 100: 14.285714 × 100 = 1,428.5714%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 1,428.5714% of 35 is 14.285714 × 35 = 500.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 500/35 = p/100, so p = 500 × 100 ÷ 35 = 1,428.5714%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =500/35*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.
