How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 57 ÷ 81 = 0.703704
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.703704 × 100 = 70.3704%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 70.3704% of 81 is 0.703704 × 81 = 57.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 57/81 = p/100, so p = 57 × 100 ÷ 81 = 70.3704%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =57/81*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.
