How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 55 ÷ 91 = 0.604396
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.604396 × 100 = 60.4396%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 60.4396% of 91 is 0.604396 × 91 = 55.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 55/91 = p/100, so p = 55 × 100 ÷ 91 = 60.4396%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =55/91*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.
