How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 64 ÷ 42 = 1.52381
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.52381 × 100 = 152.381%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 152.381% of 42 is 1.52381 × 42 = 64.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/42 = p/100, so p = 64 × 100 ÷ 42 = 152.381%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =64/42*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.
