How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 61 ÷ 21 = 2.904762
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.904762 × 100 = 290.4762%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 290.4762% of 21 is 2.904762 × 21 = 61.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 61/21 = p/100, so p = 61 × 100 ÷ 21 = 290.4762%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =61/21*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.
