How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 60 ÷ 98 = 0.612245
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.612245 × 100 = 61.2245%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 61.2245% of 98 is 0.612245 × 98 = 60.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 60/98 = p/100, so p = 60 × 100 ÷ 98 = 61.2245%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =60/98*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.
