How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 65 ÷ 27 = 2.407407
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.407407 × 100 = 240.7407%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 240.7407% of 27 is 2.407407 × 27 = 65.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 65/27 = p/100, so p = 65 × 100 ÷ 27 = 240.7407%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =65/27*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.
