How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 57 ÷ 23 = 2.478261
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.478261 × 100 = 247.8261%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 247.8261% of 23 is 2.478261 × 23 = 57.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/23 = p/100, so p = 57 × 100 ÷ 23 = 247.8261%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =57/23*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.
