How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 56 ÷ 66 = 0.848485
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.848485 × 100 = 84.8485%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 84.8485% of 66 is 0.848485 × 66 = 56.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 56/66 = p/100, so p = 56 × 100 ÷ 66 = 84.8485%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =56/66*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.
