How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 52 ÷ 31 = 1.677419
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.677419 × 100 = 167.7419%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 167.7419% of 31 is 1.677419 × 31 = 52.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 52/31 = p/100, so p = 52 × 100 ÷ 31 = 167.7419%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =52/31*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.
