How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 51 ÷ 89 = 0.573034
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.573034 × 100 = 57.3034%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 57.3034% of 89 is 0.573034 × 89 = 51.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 51/89 = p/100, so p = 51 × 100 ÷ 89 = 57.3034%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =51/89*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.
