How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 61 ÷ 31 = 1.967742
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.967742 × 100 = 196.7742%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 196.7742% of 31 is 1.967742 × 31 = 61.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 61/31 = p/100, so p = 61 × 100 ÷ 31 = 196.7742%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =61/31*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.
