How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 57 ÷ 78 = 0.730769
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.730769 × 100 = 73.0769%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 73.0769% of 78 is 0.730769 × 78 = 57.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/78 = p/100, so p = 57 × 100 ÷ 78 = 73.0769%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =57/78*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.
