How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 6 ÷ 26 = 0.230769
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.230769 × 100 = 23.0769%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 23.0769% of 26 is 0.230769 × 26 = 6.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 6/26 = p/100, so p = 6 × 100 ÷ 26 = 23.0769%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =6/26*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.

What the result means
