How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 58 ÷ 83 = 0.698795
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.698795 × 100 = 69.8795%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 69.8795% of 83 is 0.698795 × 83 = 58.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 58/83 = p/100, so p = 58 × 100 ÷ 83 = 69.8795%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =58/83*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.
