How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 62 ÷ 47 = 1.319149
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.319149 × 100 = 131.9149%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 131.9149% of 47 is 1.319149 × 47 = 62.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 62/47 = p/100, so p = 62 × 100 ÷ 47 = 131.9149%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =62/47*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.
