How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 57 ÷ 68 = 0.838235
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.838235 × 100 = 83.8235%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 83.8235% of 68 is 0.838235 × 68 = 57.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/68 = p/100, so p = 57 × 100 ÷ 68 = 83.8235%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =57/68*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.
