How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 60 ÷ 62 = 0.967742
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.967742 × 100 = 96.7742%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 96.7742% of 62 is 0.967742 × 62 = 60.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 60/62 = p/100, so p = 60 × 100 ÷ 62 = 96.7742%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =60/62*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.
