How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 54 ÷ 61 = 0.885246
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.885246 × 100 = 88.5246%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 88.5246% of 61 is 0.885246 × 61 = 54.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 54/61 = p/100, so p = 54 × 100 ÷ 61 = 88.5246%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =54/61*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.
