How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 55 ÷ 26 = 2.115385
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.115385 × 100 = 211.5385%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 211.5385% of 26 is 2.115385 × 26 = 55.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 55/26 = p/100, so p = 55 × 100 ÷ 26 = 211.5385%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =55/26*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.
