How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 61 ÷ 24 = 2.541667
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.541667 × 100 = 254.1667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 254.1667% of 24 is 2.541667 × 24 = 61.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 61/24 = p/100, so p = 61 × 100 ÷ 24 = 254.1667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =61/24*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
