How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 61 ÷ 98 = 0.622449
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.622449 × 100 = 62.2449%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 62.2449% of 98 is 0.622449 × 98 = 61.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 61/98 = p/100, so p = 61 × 100 ÷ 98 = 62.2449%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =61/98*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.
