How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 57 ÷ 70 = 0.814286
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.814286 × 100 = 81.4286%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 81.4286% of 70 is 0.814286 × 70 = 57.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/70 = p/100, so p = 57 × 100 ÷ 70 = 81.4286%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =57/70*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.
